FROM IBRAHIM AKANBI, IBADAN

The governor­ship candidate of the Social Democratic Par­ty (SDP) in Oyo State, Engineer Oluseyi Ma­kinde, has told the state governor, Sena­tor Abiola Ajimobi to stop his attempt to force the people of the state to vote for him, describing it as an ex­ercise in futility that would fail in the end.

Reacting to the govern­ment’s directive, forcing the teachers in the state to report and take part in po­litical activity at the Gov­ernment House, Ibadan on Friday, Makinde described the decision as a gross abuse of office by the governor, wondering if such brazing use of force would make the teachers vote for him.

The Makinde Campaign Organisation in a statement signed by its Director of Media, Alhaji Wale Adele, noted that it has become a fashion for Governor Aji­mobi to force the people of the state to attend his cam­paigns, using the instru­mentality of the state.

Eng. Makinde expressed surprise that a government that had long disconnected with the workers would now woo them with a plate of rice and N1,000 which were distributed at the event.

The statement said it was a theatre of absurd that the APC government that could not pay teachers their salaries in December and January could find money to promote its campaign.

From the north to the west to the south and the east, see an APC card carrying member, you see a heartless inhumane tout. Dear Oyo state inhabitants, its in your hands. Vote wisely, vote out wickedness and vote in transformation.
