Governor Abiodun received the groups at a meeting held at the Presidential Lodge, Abeokuta, where he commended their decision to align with the APC and work together for the success of the party and its candidates across Ogun East Senatorial District.
He said political actors who share common interests should be able to speak with one voice, particularly in an election year, rather than dissipate their energy working for different political parties.
The Governor, however, expressed concern over the recent relaunch of the foundation of the Senator representing Ogun East Senatorial District and former governor of the state, Otunba Gbenga Daniel, where the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate, Hon. Ladi Adebutu, was special guest of honour.
Abiodun said the development appeared to suggest that the former governor had chosen to operate outside the mainstream of the APC, despite his status as a respected political figure in Ogun State.
He noted that his relationship with Daniel had always been guided by respect for the office of governor and the responsibilities that come with being a former governor.
