OSUN 2022: GBOYEGA OYETOLA IS A FANTASTIC FAILURE – ACPP

 

 

The Alliance of Collaborating Political Parties (ACPP), a pro Rauf Adesoji Aregbesola political group has described governor Gboyega Oyetola’s performance in the past three and half years as a failure.

 

This was contained in a press release signed by a Chieftain of the group, Wole Adedoyin who is also the State Chairman of Hope Democratic Party (HDP), one of the parties that worked for the emergence of Governor Gboyega Oyetola in 2018.

 

Wole Adedoyin, the 2018 Governorship Candidate of Hope Democratic Party said, “Our governor has failed to do most of the agenda he promised during the heated campaign in 2018. Governor Gboyega Oyetola  has made a number of promises particularly on workers’ welfare and salaries and we have not seen any tangible accomplishment on this. We have examined the governor on his promises and works, and we have scored him below average”.

 

“We want the governor to tell Osun State citizens how much he has received as allocation and what project he did with it. We challenge him to come and give account of his stewardship in the last three and half years of his administration as the executive governor of the state, Adedoyin added.

 

Adedoyin who is also the State Chairman of the Association of Progressive Political Parties  and groups (Osun APPPS) in Osun State further accused Governor Gboyega Oyetola led government by saying, “The governor has been lavishing public funds on unnecessary projects, throwing indiscriminate millions on personal projects with state funds and watching education and agriculture decaying.  Where does the governor spend mountains of taxpayers’ money and the federal allocation. The local government election he promised to conduct was a sham. He wasted all our resources and denied political parties their democratic rights.

 

ACPP however warned the governor to stop mentioning reduction in federal allocation for his shortcomings.

IPAC Admonishes Parties against turning Osun into combat Zone

 

IPAC ADMONISHES PARTIES AGAINST TURNING OSUN INTO COMBAT ZONE

 

Ahead of the July 16 Governorship election in Osun State, the Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC), has admonished political parties in Osun state to resist any attempt by criminals to infiltrate the state and turn Osun into a combat zone.  

 

The admonition was contained in a statement issued by IPAC Osun Chairman, Mr. Wale Adebayo, on Sunday in Osogbo.

 

The statement also urged the political parties to organize their primaries in ways that the best will emerge as candidates from their numerous aspirants.

 

The Statement partly reads:  

 

“Ahead of the July 16 Governorship election in Osun State, we urged political parties to abide by the dictates of the electoral act. We also advise all concerned Stakeholders to toe the path of honour and not involve in acts that will lead to the breakdown of law and order.

 

“IPAC is aware of the serious crisis within the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun State. We appeal to them in the interest of our people not to turn the state into battle ground.”

 

“It is obvious that democracy can only flourish in a peaceful environment. It is our only hope of building a strong, virile, stable, prosperous and a just society.”

 

“Any threat to the democratic process is a threat to our nationhood and existence and it must be resisted by all the patriotic Osun State Citizens.”

 

IPAC under the leadership of Mr. Wale Adebayo finally appealed to political parties interested in participating in the forthcoming governorship election to conduct credible primaries in order to avert violence and bloodshed that could heat up the polity and truncate the electorate process in the State.

Osun APM attacks Osun Governor over dearth of infrastructures in the State

 

OSUN APM ATTACKS OSUN GOVERNOR OVER DEARTH OF INFRASTRUCTURES IN THE STATE

 

 -Non conduct of local -government election -Insecurity

 

The Osun State chapter of the Allied People's Movement has scored Governor Gboyega Oyetola low in the provision of infrastructures and social amenities.

 

Allied People's Movement has called on the governor to urgently prioritize the issue of infrastructure. Four year into the administration of the incumbent, we can't see any tangible road construction that had been completed in the entire state. Our roads are in bad shape.

 

The party castigated the governor for embarking on the construction of a flyover at Olaiya area in Osogbo, the state capital, the flyover the APM described as white elephant project. Nearly all the roads in the entire local government are in need of urgent attention. They are in a deplorable state.

 

A statement signed by the chairman of Allied People’s Movement (APM) in the state who doubles as the IPAC chairman, Wale Adebayo said the call has become imperative following recent happenings in the state.

 

It also lampooned the governor for his failure to conduct local government elections. The local government is the closest to the grassroots, and vast majority of our people reside there.

 

' It is disheartening that since the Oyetola led government fund its way into osun state , he hasn't conducted local government elections.

 

He further said the 1999 constitution did not give room for a caretaker committee at the local government level. The sole administrators in each local government have no direct link with the people, as they are merely appendages of the governor.

 

APM noted with dismay the non constitution of statutory boards by Governor Oyetola since he assumed office. This is indeed worrisome, as the governor has turned the state into his personal business. The economy of the state is in shambles; Adebayo fumed.

 

The party also wants the governor to explain to the good people of Osun State what the government has done with the ceded Sixty Percent ownership of Citi trust Holdings Plc. (formerly Omoluabi bank) that was celebrated with funfare.

 

Allied People's Movement also implored the governor to rejig the Amotekun corps to make it functional like other south west states.

 

'They are performing relatively well in Oyo and nearby states.  Ours should not be an exception; Adebayo said.
