Turnout Enmasse On Saturday For Adeoti, APC Members Urged

 

– I begged Oyetola for two years – Aregbesola

– We will not cower in the face of State Sponsored Violence – Adeoti

Members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ayedaade, Irewole and Isokan Federal Constituency converged on Ikire, headquarters of Irewole Local Government, on Thursday, to receive the train of Alhaji Moshood Adeoti ahead of Saturday’s primaries of the party in the State of Osun.

Led by the Minister of Interior, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, Osun APC Chairman, Alhaji Rasaq Salinsile, TOP Chairman, Reverend ‘Lowo Adebiyi among other dignitaries. They urged the party faithfuls in the area to come out in their thousands to ensure that Adeoti emerges the party’s candidate on Saturday.

Addressing the party members, Minister of Interior, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, noted that it is time to reject the incumbent, Gboyega Oyetola and support Moshood Adeoti, to be the next Governor of Osun.

Aregbesola held that it is indeed time to restore Osun to the hands of true progressives which the party members must key into to entrench the dividends of democracy.

“There is no harm in replacing someone who is not doing well and not in tandem with progressive ideals. That is what we are working on and that is why we have come to you.

“I worked very hard to ensure Oyetola’s election. It was however a rude shock when he got into office and started a grand witch-hunt against me. We campaigned for Oyetola through thick and thin to make him Governor. It was however surprising to see how he was doing to me when he got to office.

“When he started doing it, I sent emissaries and started begging him. This went on for two years. I continued to send emissaries to him to appeal to him. I also begged him too. I even told him not to like me at all, but not destroy my good works or personality. He did not heed to this. He kept on with his witch-hunt.

“He said I did not support him to become Governor. I appealed to him that he may not even like me, but he should not tarnish my image or destroy my legacies and that of our party, the true progressives in Osun politics. He did not listen. He was bent on destroying me and that’s what he has done.

“After two years, genuine party leaders gathered together with the sole aim of rescuing our party from these marauders. That is what we are here to do. We were the ones who sweat hard for the progress and success our party has achieved. We brought the former party Chairman, (Famodun) from the PDP. It is time to send them packing.”

In his remarks, Adeoti re-echoed the need for party members to support his ambition.

He promised to build on the legacies of the All Progressives Congress APC in Osun as enshrined in the ideals of good governance entrenched by the Aregbesola administration in Osun from November 2010 to November 2018.

He urged party members not to be afraid of state sponsored violence by non-state actors backed by the Commissioner of Police, but come out en-masse to make him the party’s candidate for the July 16, 2022 governorship election.
