Apart from the normal congress held by the party yesterday, the Osun Progressive (TOP) also held another congress in Osogbo. The Osun Progressive (TOP) used to be a very functioning group for the ruling party during the administration of Ogbeni Rauf Adesoji Aregbesola when he was still the governor of the state. Now that the incumbent governor of the state and Aregbesola are not in good terms with each other, the group has been functioning as another faction of the All Progressive Congress (APC) in Osun State.

The opposition party can take advantage of the crisis battling the ruling party by strengthening the power of the opposition party by clearing off the factions in the party. As it has been noted that Ademola Adeleke and Akin Ogunbiyi's factions are not relenting in the governorship race in Osun State. The leaders of the party should call the two politicians in the party and settle things amicably in order for them to project a candidate while the ruling party is still divided.
