Chairman of the Campaign Committee for the re-election of Governor Rauf
Aregbesola of Osun State, Professor Sola Adeyeye has said that the
political career of Peoples Democratic Party’s governorship candidate,
Senator Iyiola Omisore will end on election day, August 9, 2014.
Adeyeye, who made this assertion, in Osogbo,
during the inauguration of a 20-man state campaign committee to
coordinate the re-election of Aregbesola, said the forthcoming election
would put a final stop to Omisore’s political aspiration because his
defeat would be devastating and final.
The Senator representing
Osun Central senatorial district, explained that his committee was
saddled with the responsibility of coordinating campaign for the
re-election of Governor Aregbesola, expressing confidence that the PDP’s
candidate would not win a single ward.
The committee’s
secretary is Professor John Adebunmi Ayoade, with a former deputy
director, Centre for Democratic Studies (CDS) also on the list.
But in a swift response, Omisore described the position of Adeyeye as
uninformed and lacking substance, stressing that Aregbesola and the All
Progressives Congress (APC) should dwell more on issues and what they
have to offer the people in terms of manifestos.
Speaking on
Tuesday through his Director of Media and Strategy, Mr Diran Odeyemi,
the former Deputy Governor stressed that “Adeyeye is completely bereft
of political and socio-economic realities in Osun and this informed his
ridiculous statement on the August 9, 2014 governorship poll.”
“These people are strangers, who are totally in the dark as far politics
of Osun State is concerned. They thought our people are fools. The
policies of their government which have fueled poverty among
communities, dislocated the hitherto organised school system and the
wanton destruction of individual properties in the name of urban renewal
projects are visible achievements of Aregbesola’s unpopular government.
“By the time our people, who have lost their economic survival to the
Lagos State businessmen and contractors through capital flight react via
electoral process by voting out APC, Aregbesola and his cohorts on
August 9, stark realities of rejection would ultimately dawn on them,”
said the spokesman.
