Deliberate Attempt By Opposition Party To Distract Makinde Will Fail — Oloko

The Vice-chairman of the Oyo State Tourism Board, Abass Oloko has said that there are deliberate attempts to distract Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, by opposition politicians.

Oloko, who was once vice-chairman of Oyo State Pilgrims Welfare Board (Muslim wing) and a member of the Oyo State Health Management Board, made this statement while reacting to a claim by a former Oyo central senatorial district senator, Ayo Adeseun that the Governor was ungrateful.

The Ibadan mogaji, in a chat with newsmen, said Adeseun and others are yet to recover from what he termed the electoral shock of the 2019 elections.

According to him, “I found the statement by Senator Ayo Adeseun about Governor Seyi Makinde absurd. Though it is not unexpected in politics, however, Senator Adeseun should have forgotten that episode and go prepare for the 2023 election.

“In elections, aspirants adopt many strategies. He should stop blaming Governor Makinde for his woes. In an attempt to say what it not, he claimed the governor bribed the NWC of the PDP to get the ticket. Though it is an attempt to call a dog a bad name, Senator Adeseun has indicted himself by saying that his N50 million bribe was not enough to get the party to give him the ticket.

”Rather than distract Governor Makinde, Senator Adeseun and others should go prepare for elections under whatever party they are. They should stop the story of Governor Seyi Makinde defecting to APC. They all want a good thing. The governor cannot join APC, he will remain with the winning PDP,” Oloko added.
