"Why I am Against Political Groups within APC" - MOSCHINO

Since inception, Justice Forum group, with the mantra "Ododo lo ma leke" has been existing in Lagos State, on which premise, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu rode to become the Governor of Lagos State in 1999 and The Mandate Movement, which was formerly called BATCO, under the mantra "We lead others follow" came into prominence during the re-election bid of Bola Tinubu in 2003. Thereafter, These two pressure groups has been co-existing in the party as it transcends from AD to AC to ACN and then to APC.

The activities of these 2 pressure groups have witnessed some supremacy battles over the years, having their "highs and lows" moments within the party. Kosofe LGA have had her own fair share of the supremacy war, which has led to denial,rejection,victimization,discrimination and betrayal amongst the group members.

Once upon a time, Justice Forum Group held sway in kosofe umder the leadership of Otunba Bushura Adedeji Alebiosu a.k.a Baba Bush, in which he dictates what happens politically in Larger Kosofe. The products of his reign were as follows; Adebayo Osinowo a.k.a Pepperito, Tunde Braimoh a.k.a Big Daddy. Kunle Soname, Oludayo Adeyeye, Gbemisola Ketitu a.k.a KTK, Muyiwa Adedeji, Babatunde Shofola, Busayo Adebayo a,k,a Jalekun e, Yetunde Arobieke, Fatai Oyesanya a.k.a Oyesco, Samiat Abolanle Bada a.k.a Mayoress, Late Obafemi Durosimi, Late Bosun Jeje, Abiodun Salami, Rotimi Agunsoye a.k.a R.O.T, Deacon Sholaja, Deacon Oyenubi and so on.

The Late Pepperito later took leadership of the mandate group in Kosofe, gaining an edge over the baba bush's led J.F, during his 4th term at the Lagos State House of Assembly. He used the power mightily with his "winners takes all" approach, that he became renowned within the politics of lagos state, to the extent that the former speaker, Mudashiru Ajayi Obasa became intimidated by his growing popularity. He hijacked the structure of the party in kosofe from baba bush, and he birthed a new course of young, vibrant politicians like Oladele Osinowo a.k.a Mayor, Moyosore Adedoyin Ogunlewe a.k.a White Lion, Rotimi Agunsoye, Gbenga Osobu, Adetunji Adebajo a.k.a Dudu, Loogun Sunday Jegede Oyekunle, Otunba Seyi Odufowokan a.k.a Speaker and so on.

After the death of Pepperito in 2020, The power then shifted back to baba bush and baba sosanya till date. The groups in the party has led to disunity among party members, one-sided reward system and series of crisis, Most especially the shocking defeat of APC at the 2023 presidential election in Kosofe LGA and Lagos State as a whole.

Recently, JF has inaugurated it's LGA excos in kosofe while Mandate group has been factionalized into 3 groups within the LGA, Even when the President and the Lagos State APC Chairman has unequivocally reiterated that there are no more groups within the party. Going into the forthcoming council election, if care is not taken, these proscribed groups can mar the performance of our party at the LG poll.

I, MOSCHINO is saying 'i am for NO group,i belong to only APC'.

Here's my reason for opposing political groups within our great party, APC.
