Political activities came alive in Oyo State soon
after the New Year celebration with the posters of
former Governor Adebayo Alao-Akala and Seyi
Makinde pasted in strategic places in Ibadan.
Both politicians belong to the Peoples Democratic
Party.
While the posters of Alao-Akala do not indicate the
position he is vying for in 2015, Makinde's posters
have 'Oyo Guber 2015' written at the top of his
picture. The posters are prominently displayed along
UI/Ojoo road, Sango, Secretariat road and PDP party
secretariat on Queen Elizabeth road.
A source close to Makinde's camp, Akeem Azeez said
that the posters belonged to the politician, adding
that the purpose of pasting them was to send the
message across to everyone in the state that
Makinde was serious about his ambition.
After series of meetings in Ibadan and Ogbomoso,
Alao-Akala has been striving to bring together
aggrieved PDP members, culminating in a town hall
meeting held at Plaza de Aruna in Oyo in December
2013, where he met with some of the members from
Oyo Federal Constituency, comprising Afijio, Atiba,
Oyo-East and Oyo-West. A source close to the former
governor, but who preferred not to be mentioned, said
that there was no decision yet on which position Alao-
Akala would contest in the coming general election.
He said, "We have not decided on the position yet.
We will leave that to the electorate. The posters are
there to generate public opinion. Our next action will
be determined by what the people say. Alao-Akala is
not desperate for position, if the people advise him
not to contest, he will accept the verdict. But the truth
is that he is a passionate leader who believes in the
voice of the people," said the source. ....What do you think of this man can he be elected again as the governor in 2015??

He should settle for the senate (Oyo North Senatorial District) or forget it! We told him same in 2011.
