The aggrieved members of the party who expressed displeasure over Afolabi's candidature threatened not work for him during the 2019 general election.  

 

 

They affirmed that the only candidate that can defeat the opposition party come 2019 is Moshood Adekunle calling on the party to reverse its decision and give the ticket back to Hon Moshood Adekunle Oluawo whom they say has worked for the party to deserve the ticket. 

 

Also speaking, Adebisi Gbolagade, former Chairman of APC, Ifelodun local government said the decision of the party members to stage a peaceful protest was to register their grievances on the alleged imposition of Afolabi.  

 

 But the spokesperson for the APC, Osun state chapter, Barr Kunle Oyatomi appealed to the protesting members urging them to respect the wish of the party as the decision of the party is supreme.
