Alao Akala Makes U-turn, Dumps PDP For Labour Party by shiffi(m): 10:59am On Dec 09, 2014 |
As you read this, Alao Akala has decamped from PDP to Labour Party, LP, at the last minute. Remember his son, Olamiju Akala began an early campaign for him with Omobanke in attendance few months ago in Ibadan where he openly flagged off his father’s governorship campaign under the umbrella of PDP? Well sadly, the one- time former Governor of Oyo State has quit the party. Though people say he left because it became obvious the party wanted another candidate, Alaka however claims he left when his teeming supporters asked him to quit because of insincerity and injustice taking place in the party. Continue... Mr Abraham Ojo, his media aide in a press statement also buttresses the former governor’s claims saying the party has not been fair. “Thousands of supporters of the former governor stormed the Bodija residence to deliberate on the way forward, after the injustice meted to him by the PDP. “After series of meetings and discussions, they all decided to dump the PDP and move to an alternative party, which is Labour Party.” “Everybody in the state knows that Alao- Akala and his supporters are strong pillars that hold the party and if a genuine delegate congress is conducted, Alao-Akala will always win, but since the national secretariat has given in to the manipulations of the minority in the party, we have no option but to quit.” He also noted that they never participated in the party’s primaries and he wonders where they got the results where they said Akala had two votes in the primaries. He has made his intention to quit the party known since Sunday, after meeting with his teeming supporters in Ogbomoso and later on Monday in Ibadan, even before the process started. “It is laughable and ridiculous to say Alao-Akala scored two votes in the primaries he did not even participate in. He is a political giant who has been a bride to all political parties in the state since the PDP travails started,” he added. I also heard some party big names such as chief Jacob Adetoro, Chief Adigun Irawo, General Yusuf Braimoh, some past commissioners and local government chairmen left with him.

It goes to shows how unpopular and spineless these politicians are. When they are in power, controlling the public purse as theirs, they behaved like gods because hungry goats are only following the Palm front on their heads. Imagine Jonathan trying to contest a governorship primaries while outside of power, where he will finish, talkless of presidency? |

chimerase2:They aren't fools, its all about Strategy. Dr Rabiu Kwankwaso was the incumbent in 2003 when he lost to a Civil Servant, Mallam Ibrahim Shekarau. He tried his luck again in 2007 but was disqualified by the PDP. Again he came back in 2011 and won the election. Politics isn't about failure of yesterday, but prospect of today and strategies to go with it. Fayose was hated by Ekiti in 2006 when he was booted out amid celebration by Ekiti, but few months ago he was returned to power by the same Ekiti that celebrated his ouster. |
