The protesters placed palm fronds and a white coffin marked with the phrase “Adetimehin Must Go” at the entrance of the party’s new State Secretariat in Akure.
Sources revealed that the youths were upset with Adetimehin due to an allegation that he had called for military intervention in Nigeria.
Attempts to reach the party chairman for comment on the allegation and the call for his resignation were unsuccessful, as his phone was switched off.

In a related development, the Executive Council members of the APC in Ofosu Ward, Idanre Local Government, held an emergency meeting and subsequently suspended Adetimehin from the party.
The suspension was reportedly due to allegations of gross misconduct and issuing statements that could potentially incite anarchy.
The suspension letter was signed by the Ward Chairman, Olabisi Adepegba, along with 14 other Exco members, including Vice Chairman Olabisi Oyewole and Secretary Olanrewaju Akinnuoye.
Meanwhile, the APC’s Director of Publicity in Ondo State, Steve Otaloro, issued a statement rejecting the call for Adetimehin’s resignation.
