The Osun State chapter of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, has called on Governor Gboyega Oyetola to resign immediately over inability to constitute heads of local governments.
The state PDP Publicity Secretary, Hon. Jacob Ayodeji Areola in a statement on Wednesday wondered why the closest tier of government to the good people of Osun State had recklessly been raped, ravaged and callously left dysfunctional.
The PDP berated governor Oyetola for playing politics with the lives of grassroot populace of the state by deliberately obstructing local government administration in the state on the altar of his APC intra party squabbles.
PDP calls on Oyetola led government to immediately install a functional local government administration in the state or save the state from further public discomfiture and resign from office for lack of simple acumen, capacity and due diligence which are stimulus for good governance.
The party bemoaned the seeming extermination of local governments in the state as ass filling ‘lamb to the slaughter’ due to conglomerated looting of the state treasury under Apc administration in Osun State.
“We understand Mr Oyetola was still a political milking infant as at the time of his ‘presidential remote controlled ascension of office’. However, as a product of a dying platform like Apc, the PDP expects Mr Oyetola to rise above his false fortune and give the people of our dear state a semblance of good governance, especially at the local government level.
“It is unthinkable that a self professed genius in public management would be so entangled in abject confusion over conduct of local government election where acceptable administrators are to be elected”
“Granted that the governor and his cabinet of baby cheerleaders are bereft of basic and rudiments of governance in a constitutional democracy, Osun State must not be made a pawn in their political chessboard, where certified apprentices are claiming political ‘Yokosuna’, thereby, leaving the state to suffer for their immaturity, cluelessness and arrogance”
” Mr Oyetola must enroll with his masters on the need to make local governments in the state actively functional for the good of our people or resign in defeat”
The PDP therefore called on founding fathers of Osun State, Traditional and Religious leaders to impress it on Mr Oyetola to stop bastardizing local government administration in the state, conduct local government election or seek help for his obvious ineptitude in the state.
Leaving local government Administration in the hands of some dictatorial managers, while settling political scores or engaging in political “friendly fire” at the expense of our people in the state, who are mostly rural dwellers, is most uncharitable, unreasonable and absolutely unacceptable.
“Good governance via a viable and functional Local Government Administrations is a statutory right of Osun people.This is not negotiable.” The PDP concluded.
