APC Doesn’t Honour Promises, Tinubu Forcing Opposition To Join – Oyinlola
Former Governor of Osun State, Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola, has described the All Progressives Congress as a party that does not honour promises.
The former governor equally said Nigeria under President Bola Tinubu has gone backwards with the economy, noting that the recent kidnapping incidents showed the state of the country under the present administration.
Oyinlola stated this during a private radio programme in Osogbo, Osun State capital on Monday.
He noted that he told Governor Ademola Adeleke that he would not be moving with him to the APC when the governor was planning to decamp before his move was thwarted by members of the party in Osun.
He said, “APC is a party that does not honour promises. I was the secretary of the New PDP when we formed the APC but what did I get in return despite my efforts?
“There was a time we met to deliberate if we would be moving to the All Progressives Congress, but I told them that I’ve been in that party before and I knew them very well and that I would not be following them to the APC if that was the option available. And my decision has not changed about that.
“Looking at the Federal Government, has the economy improved or is the food now sufficient for the masses? Are we to talk about the insecurity in the country? If we have done well, what will make Donald Trump say America will invade Nigeria?
“What happened in Nigeria in the past week is worth resigning from office for. In another country, the president will resign.”
Oyinlola added that those joining the APC were not doing so willingly but due to pressure from the ruling party.
“What President Bola Tinubu is doing now is that any opposition that does not agree to move to the APC voluntarily will have an issue.
“When you see a former Vice Presidential candidate under the PDP joining the APC, you will know that he has been caught. And don’t forget that the former APC chairman has said that once you join the APC, your sins are forgiven,” he stated.
