A member of the Peoples Democratic
Party Board of Trustees, Alhaji Shuaib Oyedokun, on Monday said the PDP
would win governorship elections in Lagos and other South-West
states in the next elections.
Oyedokun stated in Osogbo, that
President Goodluck Jonathan and the national leadership of the PDP were
in support of the bid to wrest power from the Action Congress of
Nigeria and Labour Party in the zone.
The assertion by Oyedokun followed a
promise by the Osun State PDP Chairman, Alhaji Gani Olaoluwa, that the
PDP would probe Governor Rauf Aregbesola’s tenure – if the PDP
defeats the ACN in the state.
Oyedokun explained that the PDP would
win the Osun and Ekiti governorship elections in 2014 and then follow
up the feat by beating the LP in Ondo State and ACN in Ogun, Oyo
and Lagos states.
Olaoluwa spoke at the PDP secretariat
in Osogbo during a ceremony to commemorate the first anniversary of the
executive of Osun PDP in office.
The Osun PDP party chairman said, “When
we assume power next year by God’s grace, we are going to ask Governor
Aregbesola how Osun money was spent.
“We just hear about millions and
billions of naira; we do not know where they are or how they are spent.
PDP will call for accountability and probity when we assume power
because the people of Osun need to know how their money is spent.”
Olaoluwa said any of the four
governorship aspirants of the party would defeat Aregbesola in the
governorship election because Osun people were fed up with the ACN in
Osun State.
The four governorship aspirants of the
party are Chief Iyiola Omisore, Alhaji Fatai Akinbade, Chief Oluwole
Oke and Senator Olasunkanmi Akinlabi.
Many leaders of the party took turns to
castigate the Aregbesola administration, which they faulted for
demolishing buildings in the state.
Olaoluwa announced an advisory
committee, which comprises notable leaders of the party like former
Governor Olagunsoye Oyinlola and the Minister of State for Defence, Mrs
Olusola Obada.
The party chairman announced a member,
PDP Board of Trustees, Alhaji Shauib Oyedokun, as the chairman.
Chief Olu Alabi, Chief Ebenezer
Babatope, former Speaker, Osun State House of Assembly, Chief Adejare
Bello; former Chairman, Osun PDP, Alhaji Ademola Rasak; Mrs Remi
Wilson, Senator Yinka Omilani, Alhaji Tajudeen Oladipo, Prof Wale
Oladipo, and Chief Lere Oyewunmi, are part members of the committee.
