Amosun Is Obasanjo's Stooge - Osoba by Mayour11(m): 9:44am On Jan 28, 2015
Ogun State former Governor, Segun Osoba, on
Tuesday said the incumbent Governor,
Ibikunle Amosun, is a stooge of former
President Olusegun Obasanjo.
Mr. Osoba who is also a national leader of the
Social Democratic Party, SDP, spoke at a
meeting with a cross section of traditional
chiefs, Baales and Olorituns in Ago-Iwoye,
Ijebu North Local Government Area of the
state.
He said most supporters of Mr. Amosun are
loyalists of the ex-president.
Speaking at the inauguration of some projects
initiated by Gbenga Kaka, the Senator
representing Ogun East, Mr. Osoba alleged
that Mr. Amosun is a sectional governor, who
concentrated his projects in Abeokuta and its
environs to the detriment of other towns in
the state.
The two time ex-governor also decried the
“injustice” allegedly meted out to the Deputy
Governor of the State, Segun Adesegun, by the
Governor.
He pointed out that the shabby treatment of
the deputy governor was a slap to the people
of Ijebuland, which he said Mr. Adesegun
represented.
“We gave Adesegun as Amosun’s deputy
because of his experience as commissioner for
works. We had expected that the governor
would tap from Adesegun’s wealth of
experience in governance but the governor
chose otherwise and started constructing
bridges where there is no water.
“Amosun really dealt with Adesegun; he
maltreated him. Ijebu people should not see
the insult meted out to Adesegun as that of
Adesegun alone. They should see it as a
collective insult. Therefore, it is time for Ijebu
people to fight back with their votes. I’m
begging you to stop the maltreatment of the
Ijebus with your votes.
“It is time to defend yourselves. This is not
1999 election when you voted for your
kinsman, Jubril Martins-Kuye, against me.
You must show Amosun with your votes come
February 28, 2015. All of you must come out
en masse and pay Amosun back,” Mr. Osoba
said.
Mr. Osoba also accused the ruling All
Progressives Congress, APC, of planning to mop
up Permanent Voter Cards, PVCs, ahead of the
elections, urging the voters to beware and
resist any form of inducement.
The projects initiator, Mr. Kaka, who named
one of the projects after Mr. Osoba, said the
gesture was in recognition of the ex-
governor’s contributions to the state.
He appealed to the people to vote in SDP in
the February general elections, stressing that
it remained the only progressive party in the
country.

Another one of those who pretend to be interested in development of their state and people over and above their personal interest.

Baba, tell the people your party's programme(s) if any and let's see if it will be better than the incumbent's..
