Nigeria - Ogun State Governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, has said that his suspension by the National Working Committee (NWC) of the All Progressives Congress (APC), is a distraction.

Amosun was suspended over alleged “anti-party activities”.

Speaking with reporters on Sunday after paying a courtesy visit to President Muhammadu Buhari at the State House in Abuja, the Governor, who is now a Senator-elect under the platform of the APC, declined further comments on his suspension.

“For now, I will not talk on the suspension issue because I have learnt in life that when you are pursuing a goal, your eyes should be on the ball and not on the spectators.

“If you take your eyes off the ball, you will miss the goal,” Amosun said.

He also used the opportunity to thank the people of Ogun Central senatorial district, for voting for him to emerge Senator.
