THE campaign group for the return of the former governor of Oyo State, Chief Adebayo Alao-Akala, Team Akala 2015 Project, on Tuesday, unveils the campaign programme of the Ogbomosho-born politician towards the 2015 election. The coordinator of the group, Prince Niran Adeyoju, said the former governor would formally declare his intention to run for the governorship again under the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), on Thursday, at the party secretariat, in Ibadan, and will be received at the Watershed Event Centre, Sawmill, Old Ife road, Ibadan.

The team, which included Dr Kola Balogun as chairman, Board of Trustees; Mr Demola Adeniyi as Secretary; Mr Abraham Ojo as Legal Adviser and Mr Oludare Ogunlana as Director of Public Affairs, also launched a website to propagate the activities of the group. Adeyoju said Alao-Akala’s performance during his first stint as the governor of the state had distinguished him as a “Nigerian whose distinction as a former governor of the state readily presents him as a man we need to lead us out of the woods.” “Chief Akala sacrificed his time during his reign as governor for his people both in public and private services; he struggled for the emancipation of the people of Oyo State, he was number one “servant leader” not a “dealer,” he said.

Earlier in the day while playing host to some journalists in his Amazing Grace Villa, Bodija, Ibadan, Chief Alao-Akala confirmed the development. He said “On Thursday at Watershed Event Centre, I will be declaring my intention to run for the Oyo State governorship election in 2015.”

According to a press statement issued by Chairman of Publicity Sub- committee of the declaration, Mr Lukman Agboluaje, “the decision of Otunba Alao-Akala to contest is in response to popular demands and calls from party members, farmers, traders, students, civil society groups, artisans, civil servants and vast majority of the people of the state who are yearning for his return to government in 2015 due to his outstanding achievements.”

Voting mr alao akala in as governor elect in oyo state 2015 will no doubt be not only a step backward but some steps backward. PDP can do better be presenting a better candidate.

Bleaching Cream Kingpin

These elements are back to support Jona ...chop small before the Otuoke born is retired in 2015.
Might be worse than Omisore, PhD...he is also Otunba Christopher Alao Akala, PhD...

Looks like he discontinued using bleaching cream.

Hmm Na Wa. Akala contesting in Oyo, well i don't like the idea but it's really gonna make the election, a hard and tough one.
Oyo state is one of the major states to watch out for in 2015. Promises to be intriguing.
