… Accuses Opposition of Disgracing Themselves
The Osun State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has criticized the All Progressives Congress (APC) for allegedly feigning ignorance on the issue of local government autonomy, stating that the opposition party is disgracing itself in the process.
Reacting to public comments by some elements in the embattled opposition camp, shortly after a judgement by the supreme court on the local government autonomy in the country, Osun PDP in a statement by the state chairman, Hon Sunday Bisi, on Friday, enjoined leaders of the APC not to relapse into their usual mysticism, which often result into nuro seizures, borne out of inordinate ecstasy.
Osun PDP specifically reminded the ousted APC of how it deliberately, out of similar ecstacy of ignorance and disdain for the laws of the land, wasted over 2billion Naira from the covers of the state on an illegal local government election, which was later not only discredited, but outrightly annulled by the court of competent jurisdiction.
The annulment of the “YES or NO” insanity conducted by the APC, according to Hon Sunday Bisi, was effected on the 25th of November 2022 by a Federal High Court in Osogbo, a time the wasteful APC government of recalcitrant former governor Gboyega Oyetola was still in force in Osun State.
It is therefore abnormal to say the least, for APC minions to begin to dream of an impossible comeback for the unfortunate lots, who were caught in the web of Apc desperation of illegality, even after our great party had offered patriotic advice against conduct of such a clearly illegal exercise, Hon Sunday Bisi posited.
The Osun PDP Chairman further advised the obviously confused opposition APC to fasten its belt and put its popularity to test, if any, by following up with the activities lined up by the State Independent Electoral Commission for the conduct of the local government election in Osun State, in line with with the prevailing electoral act as amended, which has been upheld by the same Supreme Court in various election related matters.
Osun PDP further reiterated that the state Governor, Asiwaju Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke at no time, dissolved elected local government structure in the State, stating that, cases relating to the better forgotten LG election had been heard and dispensed with, after the PDP legal team submerged the then Gboyega Oyetola led government in the ocean of law, which was never survived by the then power drunk APC.
