GOVERNOR Gbenga Daniel of Ogun State, yesterday, ridiculed Tuesday’s campaign rally of the Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN, in the state, saying the party was in the state to sell lies to the electorate.

Daniel who described the Governorship candidate of the ACN in the state, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, as an inconsistent candidate, also accused Lagos State Government of running an expensive government. He took a swipe at the governorship candidate of the former President Olusegun Obasanjo faction of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the state, Gen. Adetunji Olurin, saying, “Olurin is still coming back to me because they are fighting the battle they have lost already.”

The governor who was in company of his Deputy, Alhaja Salmot Badru, the factional Chairman of the PDP in Ogun State, Elder Joju Fadairo, made the declaration at his Thank You Tour in Abeokuta North Local Government Area of the state. Daniel explained that while Ogun State Road Maintenance Agency, OGROMA, spent N20milion on a kilometre of roads in the state, the Lagos government spent about N250milion on the same project.

Describing Tuesday’s rally of ACN as a wasted effort, the governor argued that the party leadership failed to state in concrete terms what they would offer the state.According to him: “It is time to remind some of these people that we know the kind of government they are running: government for the media. All the people they brought to this place yesterday were from Lagos but we will wait for them till the election proper maybe they will come and vote from Lagos.”

“Under no circumstances can we compare what is going on in Lagos with what is going on in Ogun State. Yes we agree that they plant flower but I am informed that they collected N3.5bln World Bank loan to plant flower in Lagos.“For that, I salute them. But if we have that much in Ogun State, we will not plant flowers. There is another thing we can do with that money. I never wanted to talk to them but they initiated this.

“I was also informed that they spent N500 million to fix Christmas trees in Lagos. Fashola my junior is somebody I have a lot of respect for but I don’t want to join issues with him but his boss, Bola Tinubu,” Daniel said. The governor added that he was optimistic that the factional governorship candidate of the PDP in the state, Gen Olatunji Olurin would still return to his group after he might have lost out at the court.

He stated, “what baffles me is that all the People the ACN were carrying about were rejected from our party. Amosun was a Senator for four years but could not do anything for Abeokuta where he came from.

“I challenge Osoba to a debate to choose any of the sectors he preferred and any period out of my eight year tenure and tell us what he did in that area that supersede mine.”

“I monitored their rally in the media but to my surprise they could not state in concrete terms what they will do for Ogun State.”

The smiles are not ordinary,it's from the effect of the hard drug he takes anyways daniel is no longer relaxed since he could not produce his own governor.

Fhemmmy:

And i am sure if well probed, he will worth that much too, cos no matter what he could have done with the money he was able to cart away would have made some interest and profit . . . . .
Only in Nigeria.
I say let all the politicians be probed, cos how come they all leave offices as billionaires . . . .no wonder most wanna give their blood to die in the office

I wouldn't know of other governors but Gbenga's file is already with EFCC and investigation concluded already.All what we are waiting for is 29 may to come to past and the guy can be arrested and prosecuted asap.
