*Says its deceitful
By; BAYO AKAMO, Ibadan
A group within the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Oyo State, PDP RENEWAL on Sunday, asked the people of Oke Ogun area of the state to ignore Gov Seyi Makinde’s promise to hand over the state to an indigene of their area in 2027.
The PDP RENEWAL in a statement made available to journalists in Ibadan by its Chairman, Mr Wole Adeduntan, declared that the promise is nothing but “deceitful, criminal and, exhibition of arrogance’
It pointed out that ” the people from Oke-Ogun extraction need to find out from the Governor why this kind of promise is being made now when we have a few days to the election”.
PDP RENEWAL quickly added, ” is it because he had realized that the people of Oke-Ogun will vote against him?
” The attention of our group, PDP RENEWAL, has been drawn to the promise made by Gov Seyi Makinde to hand over the reigns of government to an indigent of Oke-Ogun in Year 2027. We viewed this statement credited to Gov Seyi Makinde to be deceitful”, it said.
PDP RENEWAL added. ” before Governor Seyi Makinde made this empty and deceitful statement, he had already promised two indigents of Ibadan land at a different fora to help them become the Governor of Oyo State in Year 2027″.
” In spite of our memberships in the Party, People’s Democratic Party, we believe that we should say the truths at all times. We strongly believe that the people of Oke-Ogun are very enlightened, exposed and politically mature. They will not fall to the trap of Governor Seyi Makinde”.
PDP RENEWAL maintained, ” we implore them to look into the antecedent of Gov Seyi Makinde who always break agreement.We want the people of Oke-Ogun and the State generally to cast their votes for Sen Kolawole Teslim Folarin who is contesting for the Governorship Election under the banner of All People’s Congress (APC).”
