Members of the All Progressives Congress, APCC, in Ward 01, Ibokun, Obokun Local Government Area of Osun State have announced the indefinite suspension of a former member of the State House of Assembly, Olatunbosun Oyintiloye, over alleged misconduct.
The decision was contained in a letter addressed to the Osun State Chairman of the party, Tajudeen Lawal, and dated Thursday, January 29, 2026.
According to the document, “the suspension followed a meeting of ward executives, leaders and members who reportedly deliberated on issues said to be affecting unity and cohesion within the ward.”
The letter, jointly signed by 18 ward executives and five leaders, accused Oyintiloye of allegedly taking over an Executive Assistant, EA, slot and funds amounting to N5.6 million without authorisation.
The signatories claimed “the funds were originally allocated for ward leaders, alleging that Oyintiloye had already secured a personal EA slot through a third party while holding a federal appointment.”
They also alleged that the former lawmaker was “involved in activities capable of causing division within the ward, including the organisation of parallel meetings.”
In addition, the ward officials accused him of “prolonged absence from ward meetings and political activities for over three years.”
The letter further alleged a lack of financial or material contributions to ward activities despite benefiting from several political appointments.
It stated, “In view of the foregoing and his consistent lack of engagement and contributions to ward affairs, it has become necessary to take decisive disciplinary action.”
The ward leaders declared that, “Consequently, Hon. Bosun Oyintiloye is hereby suspended indefinitely from Ward One, Ibokun, and shall cease to represent the interests of the ward at any level.”
They, however, added that they remained open to intervention from party leaders, stressing that their priority was the unity and success of the APC ahead of future elections.
Reacting to the development in a phone chat with DAILY POST, Oyintiloye dismissed the suspension as invalid, describing it as a ruse by disgruntled and suspended party members.
He alleged that those who signed the letter were not recognised party executives, claiming they were working for opposition interests in the state.
Oyintiloye denied all allegations against him, saying he neither controlled the EA slot nor had access to the N5.6 million mentioned in the letter.
“The allegations are lies aimed solely at discrediting me. I have reported the matter to the state party leadership.
“If they truly have the power to suspend me, why can’t they wait to do so through the proper party executive channels before going to the press?
“The same Gbenga Fagbamila, who was suspended from the party for embezzling N7.5 million meant for the 2022 election, is signing my alleged suspension letter alongside other disgruntled members.
“It is a real shame. If they are truly bona fide members of the party, let them appear before the party executives at the state level to defend the allegations leveled against me.
“Their action is a joke of the century because I remain a loyal and respected member of the APC.
“I also urge members of the public to disregard the purported suspension,” he stated.
