Claims of disloyalty during the 2023 election campaign are once again fuelling internal tensions within the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Sources close to the Tinubu campaign recall several alleged acts of political sabotage, including Governor Abiodun’s reported endorsement of Yemi Osinbajo during the APC primaries.

This perceived disloyalty, coupled with accusations that Abiodun dismissed Tinubu’s presidential prospects and rebuffed repeated calls from him, has reignited debate over party unity.

The most damaging claims suggest Abiodun withheld campaign resources in Ogun State, diverting funds intended for Tinubu’s campaign towards his own re-election efforts.

These allegations remain unverified but have circulated widely among party insiders and social media commentators.

Despite the tension, no official disciplinary action has been taken against the governor. However, analysts note that such rifts could weaken the APC’s internal cohesion ahead of upcoming elections.

Governor Abiodun’s camp has consistently denied any betrayal, calling the allegations “politically motivated fiction” aimed at discrediting his administration.

Nonetheless, the matter remains a source of unease, with political observers watching closely for any fallout within the party.

As the APC continues to wrestle with internal loyalty tests, the Dapo Abiodun betrayal saga underscores the fragile alliances that shape Nigerian power politics.
