The Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) recently accused Alhassan Ado Doguwa, Chairman of the House of Representatives Committee on Petroleum Resources (Upstream), of undermining the party with his comments during the Ede Day celebrations.
Representing the Speaker of the House, Tajudeen Abass, at the event in Ede, Doguwa’s remarks were interpreted by some APC members as being overly complimentary towards Governor Ademola Adeleke’s administration. This led to a public outcry and a demand for an investigation into his actions, as stated by Kola Olabisi, the Osun APC spokesperson.
In response, Doguwa clarified his position on Tuesday, asserting that his comments had been taken out of context. He accused the media team of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Osun of twisting his remarks to create political tension.
“My jokes were misinterpreted to undermine the APC. It’s unfortunate that innocent comments were weaponized for political gain,” he stated.
Doguwa extended an apology to the Osun APC, reaffirming his loyalty to the party and expressing optimism about the APC reclaiming Osun State in the 2026 governorship election.
“By God’s grace, PDP’s time in Osun is limited. The APC will return stronger in 2026. I deeply regret any misunderstanding my comments may have caused and ask my fellow party members to accept my apology,” Doguwa concluded.
