APC To Gov Adeleke: Investigate Killings Of Our Members Before, During Elections To Show Commitment To People’s Safety
Commenting on the security meeting held in Osogbo last week Thursday which was presided over by Governor Ademola Adeleke and had Assistant Inspector-General of Police in charge of Zone 11, Mr. Akande Sikiru and the commissioners of police in Oyo and Osun states among attendees, Osun state APC has accused the current administration in the state of insincerity when it comes to the fight against insecurity.
It would be recalled that Governor Adeleke had stated during the meeting that reportedly lasted five hours that he was worried by the spate of interstate crimes that have had Osun state affected.
Acting Chairman of the state APC, Sooko Tajudeen Lawal, in a statement made available to Team@orientactualmags.com by the party’s Director of Media and Information, Chief Kola Olabisi alleged that Governor Adeleke convened the said meeting to divert attention away from the real causes of insecurity in the state.
The party submitted that nothing meaningful and tangible can be achieved by the governor in terms of security unless his efforts in this regard are domesticated.
The statement alleged that the state has become a safe haven for notorious political hoodlums who have made lives difficult for residents of the state since Adeleke became the governor on November 27, 2022.
The party added that ‘it is absurd to hear that it is the same governor who shields the dangerous political thugs that he used to oppress, intimidate and willfully prevent some members of the opposition from carrying out their civic responsibility that is now talking from both sides of his mouth on the need to fight interstate crimes’.
‘Where was this emergency apostle of peace in the person of Governor Adeleke when the political thugs loyal to his party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), killed about 17 members and supporters of the APC in Ijesaland alone before the last three elections, the results of which he is now dubiously flaunting as a testimony for his phoney popularity and acceptability in the state?
Where was Adeleke when there were reports of killings and attacks of the members of the opposition in other parts of the state before and during the said elections which have now become the basis of his arranged acceptability?
Why has it become difficult for Governor Adeleke to condemn the needless killings and attacks of the members and supporters of the opposition APC before and during the elections if truly the wicked and inhuman acts did not receive his blessings?
Governor Adeleke should stop assaulting the discerning members of the society’s sensibilities by stopping his lip service to fight against insecurity in and outside the state.
Adeleke should know that any effort that his administration may be making to fight insecurity would amount to nothing until he has the political will to probe and sanction the hired thugs who killed some of our members to enable the PDP to record the fraudulent victory in the last three elections.
Anything short of this is balderdash as the blood of those APC members and supporters killed by the PDP thugs in order to rig the elections would be on the neck of the governor and haunt him till eternity’ the statement added- Team@orientactualmags.com
