Members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ibarapa Local Government Area has condemned the reception organized for decampees by the Chariman Displinary Committee, Park Managmenr System (PMS) Mr. Mukaila Lamidi known as Auxiliary and Governor Makinde’s ally, Otunba Seye Famojuro.
In a statement made by the party spokesperson, Mr. Liadi Adesokan on Wednesday, 23rd September 2020,
the PDP members expressed their displeasure as they made it known that those who received the decampees on behalf of the party were not card-carrying members of the party- Mukaila Lamidi a.k.a Auxiliary and Mr. Seye Famojuro.
According to them, “We do not understand why it has to be the duo who would receive decampees on our behalf. As a matter of fact, the decampees led by one Adebayo Anthony Adepoju are not up to ten in number which makes the event not worth celebrating.
“Even the said Adepoju who contested for the Ibarapa North/Ibarapa Central House of Representatives seat under the flagship of Zenith Labour Party (ZLP) in the 2019 general elections, is just a US returnee who we can boldly say do not have any viable political structure in the local government not to talk of the constituency.
“It is also disheartening to note that Adepoju, had been given an appointment as the Chairman, Water Corporation of Oyo State since April, 2020, by the state government, when core PDP members who contributed immensely to the success of the party during the elections have not been considered.
“It is therefore, on this note that we call on the national body of our party under the able leadership of our chairman, Uche Secondus to intervene in this matter in order not to allow some unsrupulous elements to scuttle our party structure of which we have laboured for many years to build.”
Blaming the Makinde-led government for the poor state of things in Igboora and the marginalisation of Ibarapa zone, Mr. Kolawole Alade described the administration as shameless.
According to him,”Politicians no get shame oooo u came to Igboora to campaign with d look of things can you tell us any development in that town? No good roads; No water; No good education.
“For over one Month no light ( They ON the light when U guys enter Igboora and they OFF immediately u Left) I wish u live here for a week and see what am saying” he lamented.”
