Omisore accepts open debate with Aregbesola

on july 08, 2014 at 10:07 pm in news

Osogbo -  PDP’s governorship candidate in Osun, Sen. Iyiola Omisore has accepted the challenge to an open debate with Gov. Rauf Aregbesola.
The acceptance is contained in a statement given to newsmen in Osogbo on Tuesday by Mr Diran Odeyemi, Omisore’s Director of Media Affairs.
Gov. Rauf Aregbesola, APC’s candidate in the Aug. 9 election, had thrown the challenge at the inauguration of Ayegbaju International Market on Tuesday in Osogbo.
However, the statement said the governor must ensure that security prevailed for the debate to take place. “Assurance of safety, among other things, would make Omisore to attend the debate.
“When an argument is being made between two different parties for instance, it may result in physical assault and harassment.
“The senator is a complete gentleman and a holder of PhD. So, we need an assurance that there will be no physical assault on him’’, the statement said. (NAN)

Ltd. also as Project Manager. Here, he supervised the construction of 19 airfields including the Makurdi Air Force Base. Apart from these, he supervised other projects like the Sokoto and Makurdi Rice Mills, Taraku Oil Mill and the Sokoto University Teaching Hospital. He was elevated to the post of a General Manager in 1987 and as a General Manager there up till 1999, he handled such projects like the Federal Mortgage Bank Headquarters Building, Onitsha Flour Mills, Bank of The North (Now Unity Bank) Building, Podium Secretariat, Port Harcourt; Eternit, Sapele; World Bank Assisted Health Projects for Plateau, Benue and Nasarawa States and the Imiringi Rural Electrification project now in Bayelsa State.

Na Wetin make am kill Bola Ige?

tafrica: His CV is quite impressive. Many people will be astonished by that CV, they thought Omi was a raw thug and had nothing upstairs.

Yea, he appears and acts like one! So no mix up here.

Welcomed development, we need to know how (policies, programs, decrees and laws) you intend to govern Osun and what you intend to do (ie roads, education, security, agriculture etc)...This is what the masses should look out for...
Don't be okay when they say they'll tackle the issue of Security, Education, Infrastructure development, Agriculture etc Go ahead and ask them how do you intend to do these?

FruityLass: Seriously, am astonished. Dunno he's this educated not like some OND holder cum riffraff

so u actually believed or thought that pdp will field a candidate who has nothing upstairs or someone who forged and lied about his qualification as an engineer like rauf argbesola? Every pdp candidate is well educated ,watch out for the pdp candidate for oyo state . Just wait and see

Smartsyn: it takes a man with a big balls to accept this...





ghen ghen, the first official APC - PDP debate coming soon.

don't mind those apc guys, they must have thought that omisore will shy or run away from the challenge but now they are in a fix because the performance of aregbe will be thrown open for public scrutiny,I am so sure some of aregbe. Party members will be blaming the governor for throwing up such a challenge ,now the pressure is on apc.

Let thr game begin

A good talker does not necessarily make a good leader. Yar'adua performed excellently as governor of katsina but never spoke much. All this talk about debate is pure deceit - after all they are groomed by experts to mesmerize the gullible with sweet talk but when they get into office they do the opposite.

I'm not moved with all these qualifications, if you like have Proffessor at the University of Heaven that I don't care. All I care for is good governance, most of our past hero don't have big qualification, but they will be forever in our mind base on the good things they left behind.

Thank you my brother, the good work will speak for you. I just hope soonest we Nigerian will understand that you don't need big certificate to be a good leader.

Let's hear them out to tell us what they have for us. I remembered how Ogbeni Aregbesola stick to his promises for we people of Osun. I heard him when he said it in his campaign den that ;I'll employ 20,000 workers within my 1st hundred days in Office and I'll make Education free for the people of Osun state just as Awolowo did.

To God be the Glory, Ogbeni Aregbesola employed 20,000 youths for his youth empowerment scheme, though he is paying them lesser money but half a bread is better than none.

Ogbeni Aregbesola made Education easy for people of Osun state by mandating it that no Secondary or Primary school student must pay a kobo in school again, even PTA money has been eradicated plus free meal, free tablet, free Uniform he is offering them.

I will be glad to see him promising us better things in his 2nd tenure if Elected and as for Omisore even with all his qualifications, all he knows is too eat two corns at a time

This is better than engaging in physical abuse. It shows maturity!

However, wetin dey very important na dividends of democracy

#TalkisCheap

Very impressed with his CV.... coming from a building services engineer as well

But the debate is a whole different game.... he needs to prove beyond his CV as to why people should vote for him

I understand his past hasn't been pure.... criminal accusations here and there, he has a tough task in convincing the electorate.
