The Director-General of the Oyo State Allied Peoples Movement (APM) Governorship Campaign Council, Dr. Nureni Aderemi Adeniran, has faulted attempts by opposition elements to misrepresent the massive turnout at the party’s campaign flag-off held in Oyo town, describing the reports of poor attendance as misleading.
Adeniran maintained that pictures and videos from the event clearly showed the large crowd, enthusiasm and overwhelming participation of party faithful and supporters who attended the campaign flag-off.
He described the contrary narratives being circulated as an attempt to mislead the public and discredit the event, insisting that the turnout at the gathering spoke for itself.
According to him, the tendency to resort to misinformation whenever events do not align with the opposition’s preferred narrative is unhealthy for democratic engagement.
“Politics should be about issues, ideas and the confidence of the people, not manufacturing falsehoods to discredit others,” he stated.
The APM campaign Director-General expressed encouragement over what he described as the growing enthusiasm, commitment and grassroots acceptance of the party’s movement across Oyo State.
He added that the people of the state deserved issue-based political engagement rather than propaganda and deliberate misinformation.
Concluding his reaction, Adeniran reiterated the party’s slogan: “APM – RESET NIGERIA. NIGERIA FIRST!”
