An indigenous group in
Ikirun, the Headquarters of Ifelodun Local
Government, the Skye
Development Initiative,
Ikirun has urged the All
Progressives Congress
(APC) and Governor
Rauf Aregbesola to
compensate Akinrun of
Ikirunland, Oba
Abdulrauf Adedeji with
the Federal House of
Representatives ticket
for Ifelodun/Boripe/­
Odo-otin federal
constituency.

President of the group,
comrade Wasiu Adebiyi
in a press statement on
Wednesday stated that
Oba Adedeji deserved
to be compensated for
his and the people of
Ifelodun contribution to
the re-election of the
governor.

Adebiyi said of the local
governments in the
federal constituency,
only Ifelodun performed
excellently in the last
governorship election,
with a winning margin
of over 5000 votes to
the Peoples Democratic
Party.

According to him, the
Akinrun of Ikirun has
always been a loyal
supporter of the
progressives and
Aregbesola right from
his inception into Osun
politics and during the
though period of the
struggle to reclaim the
governor’s stolen
mandate.
He recalled that the
incumbent lawmaker
representing the
Ifelodun/Boripe/Odo-
Otin federal
constituency,
Honourable Yinka Ajayi
who is from Ada, Boripe
Local GovernmentS, lost
one of the wards in his
community while the
APC performed below
expectation in the local
government.
Adebiyi added that the
APC lost to the PDP in
Odo-Otin Local
government during the
last election.
“The analysis above is
to buttress the point
that Akinrun, in fact,
Ifelodun local
government deserved
to be compensated for
the ticket of the federal
House of
Representatives for our
constituency. The
Akinrun has been a
progressive and the
friend of the governor
and the APC for a long
period of time.
“In spite of inducement,
harassment and
intimidation from the
PDP led federal
government; Akinrun
stood his ground and
renew his supports for
Aregbesola, while other
traditional rulers in the
state sold out.
Noteworthy is the
threat from PDP in the
state that they will run
Akinrun out of his
palace if they won the
election. However,
Akinrun remained
undaunted and rally
round the governor and
ensure his re-election.
“We cannot continue to
mention the
contribution of Akinrun
towards the re-election
of Governor Aregbesola,
and of course, we are
not trying to impose
anybody on the APC or
the governor for the
ticket. But we think our
traditional ruler and of
course, Ifelodun,
deserved the ticket”, he
said.
Adebiyi, therefore,
appealed to the APC
and GOV Aregbesola to
consider Ikirun for the
ticket of the Federal
House of
Representatives for
Ifelodun/Boripe/Odo-
Otin Federal
Constituency.
