Posted by The Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has expressed sympathy with Mr Akindele Adekunle, the state caretaker committee ex-chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, over his remarks about the APC’s presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Sooko Tajudeen Lawal, the Acting Osun State Chairman of the APC, stated in a statement on Monday that it was regrettable that Adekunle could use unprintable slurs on Asiwaju Tinubu all in the name of politics.
He bemoaned the fact that a party chairman with blood in his veins could excuse the ongoing currency redesign and fuel scarcity crises in the name of politics merely because he wanted Tinubu crucified for no reason.
He intimated that the most vexing thing about Adekunle’s remark, titled ‘Osun PDP Cautions Residents On Fighting Proxy War In APC’s Election Fever-induced Battle,’ was that he was assuming traits he didn’t have.
Lawal questioned Adekunle, who had selected him as the voice for the people of Osun following the recent dismissal of Governor Ademola Adeleke in the state’s governorship election on July 16, 2022.
He stated that Tinubu is a one-man battalion in political jargon, and that he does not require anyone to fight for him, either by proxy or otherwise.
He expressed regret that someone answering the designation of a party chairman in a complex state like Osun could be offering his support and explaining the national fuel and currency issues caused by cabals acting in collusion with the PDP serial presidential candidate.
“The expired Osun PDP caretaker committee chairman, Mr Adeleke Adekunle, should note that regardless of the weaponized fuel and currency crises orchestrated by Alhaji Atiku Abubakar and his gangsters wherever they may be, God Almighty will surely propel Tinubu’s presidential ambition to victory on February 25, 2023.
“It’s only a schizophrenic patient or a scallywag who would prefer someone who sold all things sellable under the guise of privatization when he was the Vice-President over a widely acclaimed father of modern Lagos, Asiwaju Tinubu, who has been building political bridges across the rivers Niger and Benue.
“It is worth recalling that the privatization exercise, which was statutorily directly under the Office of Atiku as Vice-President, was the architect of the seemingly intractable unemployment scourge that has been rocking the nation today, as all government companies were sold to the cronies, families, and friends of the Waziri Adamawa.
“My suggestion to the novice and loquacious Osun State PDP caretaker committee chairman is to learn how to avoid diarrhoea of the mouth, and to restrict playing his political game to his equal,” Lawal said.
