By • Olalekan Fagbade Governor’s absence, strategy to avoid giving report of one-year stewardship – APC alleges The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun State has condemned the continuous absence of the state governor, Ademola Adeleke, in the state Government House, describing it as a strategy to avoid giving report of his one-year stewardship. It will be recalled that the governor's spokesperson, Olawale Rasheed, had in a recent statement claimed that his principal has embarked on a working vacation to Europe and Asia. Mr Rasheed had said that the governor's trip was to finalise partnership deals with investors and development partners. However, the Osun APC, in a statement signed by the Chairman, Tajudeen Lawal on Sunday, condemned Mr Rasheed's claim, saying it is full of contradictions criminally packaged to hide some information. The party claimed that the governor, contrary to Rasheed's statement, has been holidaying in the United States of America in the last two weeks. It said: “Of course, this is a mere prelude to a foundation-laying for excuses that Governor Adeleke would not be physically present in the state for the celebration of his one-year administration coming up tomorrow. “It was reliably gathered that a recorded statement from the governor would be played for the people of the state in lieu of his physical presence tomorrow. “No one can begrudge another for falling sick or nursing an ailment as such is beyond the control of any human being but God Almighty, however, it beholds on those who are holding the people’s mandate in trust to always tell the truth and stand by the truth. “We know very well that Governor Adeleke has absconded from the state so he would not be able to give due account of his stewardship to the people of the state. “Since November 2022, when he came on board, Governor Adeleke has run the state aground with his sheer incompetence, lack of proper education and his zero administrative acumen. “He is afraid to disclose to Osun people how he has mismanaged over N130 billion in revenue accrued to his government in the last one year. “He is afraid to tell them how he has allocated in the supplementary budget over N10 billion for his food, entertainment and office use while parents of UNIOSUN students are struggling to pay increased school fees his regime forced on them to pay. “Governor Adeleke is ashamed to face the Osun people that one year after, his promise of making Osun another Dubai is a fluke. “Adeleke is distraught to face Osun people because he has failed to provide palliative for them in the face of economic hardship occasioned by the removal of fuel subsidy and the N9billion he collected from the Federal Government, his demonic government has looted it. “Adeleke is afraid to face the anger of Osun people that while a serious state like Ogun is investing in Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) buses, which is capable of making the cost of transportation cheaper, Adeleke in a ploy to line his pocket, is putting Osun money in unsustainable diesel-propelled vehicles purchased over 10 years ago.” The Osun APC also claimed that Adeleke would be laying a dangerous precedent with his absence from the first anniversary of his administration on Monday, as it would be the first time that such would happen in the history of the creation of the state.

Former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi has stirred controversy with comments suggesting President Bola Ahmed Tinubu was elected in 2023 due to ethnic support from Yoruba voters. During an interview on The Honest Bunch podcast, Obi questioned if "there is a market where Yoruba people buy things cheaper," referencing economic hardships under Tinubu's presidency. This Is NOT Justice: Child Abuse, Genocide, Human Rights Violations – APC Chieftain Condemns Court’s Bail Conditions for Minors Who Protested Tinubu’s Hardships “Let’s talk about what is happening today, rice is N100,000 and we are not even sure where we are gonna be with this situation. “It is our turn, he is a Yoruba man. Ask the people in Ogun here, is there a plan where you people buy bread cheaper? So I can follow you this night and buy one.” Obi’s remarks prompted swift backlash on social media, especially from Yoruba users who felt targeted by his statements. Twitter user @Mayordavid_9 expressed disappointment, stating, “This coming from a presidential aspirant shows how tribalistic this man is.” US Election 2024 Update: How Americans Elect Their President as Candidate With Highest Vote May Not Win   Another user, @Laykay0808, added, “Is he not aware Yorubas’ votes and others made him win in Lagos?” The criticism continued with @JubaOluwaseun, who emphasized, “The Yoruba voted for him en masse... Now compare this to what Tinubu achieved in his region.” Meanwhile, @Ohiss_ accused Obi of making "careless insensitive statements to please the media." Obi’s comments have reignited debates around ethnic dynamics in Nigerian politics. His stance on Tinubu's support base, coupled with recent comments suggesting church vigils be limited to boost productivity, has drawn polarized responses, with some seeing it as practical advice, while others see it as an unnecessary interference in religious practices.

Ogun: Appeal Court Rules On Adebutu’s Petition Against Abiodun

There is palpable tension among members of the All Progressives Congress, APC, and those of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, as the Appeal Court delivers judgement on Ladi Adebutu’s petition against Governor Dapo Abiodun. Adebutu, the candidate of the PDP, had earlier approached the tribunal to challenge the victory of Abiodun in the March 18 governorship election. The PDP candidate had alleged that the election that returned Abiodun did not comply with the provisions of the Electoral Act. He also claimed that the election was marred with irregularities and corrupt practices, adding that over 40,000 voters were disenfranchised due to violence. He asked the court to nullify the election and declare him winner. But, the Hamidu Kunaza-led tribunal dismissed Adebutu’s petition, saying it lacked merit. Not satisfied, Adebutu proceeded to the Appeal Court to seek redress, praying that the judgement of the trial tribunal be set aside. Pmnews.ng reports that members of both parties have left Ogun State to witness the court proceeding in Lagos State. The sitting will start by 9 am at the Court of Appeal sitting in Igbosere, Lagos. https://pmnews.ng/2023/11/24/tension-in-ogun-as-appeal-court-rules-on-adebutus-petition-against-abiodun/ Read the full article
