It’s a disturbing reflection of a party that has completely lost touch with reality, direction and its own supporters. Their latest press conference is not just a political comedy, it’s an embarrassing paradox that raises one critical question: Is the Osun APC under the influence of desperation or delusion?. is it now clear, even to the most die-hard APC faithful, that what’s left of the party in Osun is not a political movement but a confused, desperate and leaderless mob choking on its own contradictions. The question that every loyal APC member should now ask is: Are we still in a political party, or a cult driven by delusion and fear of the law...
