Among the resolutions of the committee was for the embattled chairman to publicly apologise to the members after serving a week suspension.
Checks revealed that Atolagbe had approached APC Chairman in Irepodun local government area, Hon Yemi Aransiola and Barrister Teju Oguntoye, as an avenue to escape the sanctions meted on him by the ward excos.
APC Secretary in Aradun ward, Mr. John Bamigbola Olufemi, told ROYAL NEWS on Sunday that the suspended chairman has also mobilised members of the APC Omu-Aran ward 1 to Arandun through their Chairman, Mr. Oyinloye Jacob, to form a splinter group.
Findings by our reporter revealed that while majority of the ward executives declared their loyalty for Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq and the Minister for Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the other group led by the suspended ward chairman expressed their fervent support for the APC State Chairman, Hon. Bashir Bolarinwa.
