Read Time:2 Minute, 39 Second
President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday joined the grand rally of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC in Oshogbo, where he said the state must continue to be ruled by the party.
He charged the people not to allow obscurity to control the affairs of the state.
Buhari said that the people should come out massively to vote for APC and not allow corrupt people to have their way in the state.
The President reaffirmed that APC had zero tolerance for corruption and that Nigerians would continue to boot corrupt leaders out of the society.
“Nigeria must be free of corrupt leaders,’’ he said as he assured the people of the government’s commitment to completing all projects abandoned by previous administration in the state.
He said that the federal government was constructing a transmission line and sub-station to boost electricity supply in the state, in addition to the road construction that is on-going in the state.
He applauded Governor Rauf Aregbesola for his achievements in infrastructural development, especially in the area of healthcare, education, security and housing and asserted that a vote for APC candidate, Mr Gboyega Oyetola is a vote for continuous development.
He said he came to Osun state for the benefit of the people.
President Buhari said Oyetola was ready to work and appreciated the people for their hospitality, warmth, friendliness and respect they rendered to the party leaders.
The National Chairman of APC, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole,
conveyed appreciation to Buhari for assisting to mobilise the people to vote for the party.
“President Buhari’s presence in Oshogbo is not to retain what APC already had but to assure Osun people of the readiness to consolidate and build more on what the people already have,’’ he explained.
Oshiomhole explained that the eight years of APC’s administration had brought many changes and changed the face of Oshogbo and the state of Osun.
He gave the assertion that APC’s candidate, Oyetola was ready to work, he said: “Governorship is not for apprentices but for those who want and ready to work.’’
“This is not the era for those who will want to engage in
familiarisation tours but somebody who knows the terrain and ready to work.
“The contest is not for those who will turn the government house to disco house, but for those who are ready to serve and work; we need people who have the passion, people with character, and people with conviction.
“These are trying times, we need people who are competent, people who can manage finances, and those who can also generate revenue.’’
Describing Oyetola as the candidate that is more fit for the job,
Oshiomhole said the candidate would continue with the people-oriented, people-driven and people-support programmes of Aregbesola.
He said that APC was celebrating Osun state where a level playing group had been created for children of all classes.
He said the one-day –a-meal programme for children in schools adopted by Osun state has benefitted the children of the “poorest workers and poorest farmers’’.
Other governors as well as the Deputy Speaker of the House of
Representatives Mr. Lasunwere present at the rally.
