Osun Guber: Oyetola deserves no second term – Accord party.
This headline was credited to the Accord Party before the 2022 governorship election in Osun state. The party stated that the cries of the state retirees over nonpayment of their entitlements are worrisome
Accord party gave their reasons why Osun people should not vote for Mr Gboyega Oyetola because he lacks the needed leadership skills and capacity to move the state forward, noting that the administration of Mr Oyetola lacked human face.
Before the Osun governorship election in 2018, I could remember how President Bola Ahmed Tinubu showcased Mr Oyetola to the people of Osun. At a point, President Tinubu described him as an encyclopedia of finance. He said Oyetola understands rudiment of good governance that he was going to change the fortune of the state if given the opportunity. After the abracadabra in 2018, he found himself on the seat, started administering the state.
For his four years as the state governor, it was complaint upon complaint shrouded in phrases like, ”the economy is bad; the debts are much; the allocation is bad” etc. The workers that were owed half salary, the “encyclopedia of finance” kept dribbling them, claiming that the economy wasn’t improving hence he couldn’t offset the debt.
This and many other reasons informed the decision of Osun people to sack him from office in 2022. The margin between him and Ademola Adeleke (PDP candidate then, now the Governor) was massive. He contested the outcome in court, he failed.
Fast forward to 2023 after the general elections. He couldn’t win Osun for his brother, Tinubu; he couldn’t win just a seat at the Senate neither was he able to return that beautiful sister, Mrs Taiwo Oluga to her seat at the House of Representatives. He led his party to abysmal failure in the state.
He lobbied, used the family ties to get appointment from his brother, President Tinubu. He was taken to the Ministry of Marine and Blue Economy to superintend. Sadly, among the non-performing Ministers, Mr Oyetola’s name appeared. I am very sure, President Tinubu is disappointed in the capacity of his younger brother, Oyetola. If the likes of Wike could be leading the table of those who performed, what excuse does Mr Oyetola has for his abysmal performance? Anyway, his men in Osun know how to paddle him by calling him a “Silent Achiever”
Dr. Abdul actually tore the Ministers into shreds, the performing ones were praised while the docile ones who have no reason being in the government of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu were brought down heavily, notably among, Adegboyega Oyetola, former Governor of Osun State was derided for inactivity in his ministry.
No doubt, it is a national disgrace that the person who represents Osun state at the Federal Executive Council performed woefully, I will urge President Tinubu to act his word, by replacing those who aren’t doing enough. This is not the time for try and error.
With his (Oyetola) abysmal performance at the national, people can now see that Osun citizens didn’t make a mistake by voting him out of office in 2022.
Today, what they said was not possible while they were here in Osun, Asiwaju Ademola Adeleke is making it possible. Do you want to talk about the gigantic capital projects going across the state? Construction of roads, even the ones he abandoned, Adeleke is doing it. Construction of five (5) flyovers at a go, it’s unprecedented. And this does not stop other sectors – health, education, payment of workers, promotion of workers, offsetting the over N500bn inherited by his government, paying retirees their entitlements, etc.
Today, the people of Osun can now see the difference between the administration of Oyetola (the encyclopedia of finance) and that of Adeleke. The difference is clear.
With Ademola Adeleke as the Pathfinder, Osun has already moved out of Egypt and progressively shining in the comity of States in Nigeria.
