“Our concern on this waste of time calisthenics by Mr Oyetola and his confused endorsement shoopers is the unnecessary waste of state funds as report reaching us confirmed the governor as usual, has earmarked several millions of naira from Osun State scarce resources for the new past time of optical illusion by the governor and his gang of political nomads.
“While we sympathize with Mr Oyetola over his inability to showcase any reasonable stride in office since the last 3years, which could have patched up deficits in his ‘remote controlled’ image in office, we however warn that Oyetola tread with caution in his desperation to make up for his lost hope, Osun PDP noted.
“Osun PDP is also not unmindful of unwillingness of most of the induced associations and their love for a better Osun State over momentary pleasure offered them by the lustful aliens and hardened treasury looters. Our great party will continue to appreciate the constant feedbacks and collaborative resolve to rescue Osun State for the good of all and in the interest of the good people of the State
The PDP said it understands the immeasurable “importance of NURTW members in a troubled economy like ours, but such value would be better appreciated when it is not traded for a one day, flash in the pan peanuts against the general good of our people. This is why we will continue to hold our brothers in high esteem, whose means of livelihood is domiciled in that sector. ”
“Our NURTW members in the state can come and dance to the cosmetic melody in Osogbo on Wednesday, but they must not forget their source. Trading welfare of Pensioners, market men and women, teachers and all other bewildered components of the state is akin to straying away from the objectives and good tidings of the State’s founding fathers.
“Again, we want to warn passionately, that Mr Oyetola tread with caution. Any reckless fleecing of the State under whatever guise will bear consequences this time and the governor can take that for a joke at his own peril. “
