Since you are selling, stop loss position will be higher than take profit position hence you expect price to fall.

For SL, add 0.400 to market price 111.370 = 111.770

For TP subtract 0.400 from 111.370 = 110.970
Thanks I appreciate

PoliticsOmisore The Best Man For The Job by topsyn03(op): 8:39pm On Aug 25, 2018
OMISORE & POLITICAL ANTECEDENTS
I Love Osun And Want The Best For My People ~Omisore

Not many know that Omisore’s involvement in politics started early in life, as his family has always been involved in Politics both at sub-national and national Levels.
In the transition years of the Babangida Administration, he was involved in the Social Democratic Party (SDP) and later became a member of the Grassroots Democratic Movement (GDM), UNCP in the Abacha years, under the Gen. Abubakar transition years he got involved with the Pan Yoruba group Afenifere (a pre-democratic activist group largely in south west Nigeria), where he was caucus leader for Osun State and the south west region of Nigeria. It was natural for him to have been involved in the formation of People’s Democratic Party (PDP), All People’s Party (APP) and finally Alliance for Democracy (AD) where he was a top financial backer.

During his tenure in the upper legislative chamber in Nigeria, Senator Omisore distinguished himself not only in name but also by the key positions he held and the achievements recorded during this period at all levels of governance. He worked with other members of the committee over 4 rounds of national budget reviews and allocation, increasing national investments in infrastructure, economic and social development as well as championing civic engagement in what has become nationally recognized as the ‘Inclusive national budgeting initiative’. Using this platform, he transformed the appropriations processes into an evidence and people responsive process, taking on publicly solicited citizens and institutional perspectives to guide allocations and appropriations.

Omisore used his office to improve the level of infrastructural development of the nation, especially road and water supply infrastructures network. He used his office to facilitate bold and transformative investments of the national budget in infrastructure, health and human capital development (education, youth development and economic empowerment). Many of these projects reflect the deployment of his professional capacity and a commitment to bridge the infrastructure gaps in national development and economic growth.
Some of his key achievements include:

INFRASTRUCTURE
(a) Dualization of Ilorin-Ogbomosho-Ibadan road
(b) Repair of Ibadan road
(c) Dualisation of Ijebu Ode-Ibadan road, Ondo-Akure, Ore-Ondo, Ore-Ipele-Lokoja, Abuja-Lokoja-Okene, Akure-Ado Ekiti, Ado-Ifaki, Aramoko-Ado-Ijero and Gbongan-Sekona-Osogbo roads.
(d) Reconstruction of Oja-Ife market and expansion of the stall to 24, with further provision of fund for electrification of the market, sinking of boreholes, provision of burglary proof e.t.c. and rehabilitation of the stall owners
(e) Rural Electrification @villages in Osun east
(f) UNESCO Cultural Centre (also a tourism)
(g) Multipurpose dams in Ife-Ijesha, Oyan, Yemoji, Ijebu Ode, Ogbese
(h) Dredging of erosion channels from Oke-Eso to Alapata to Ondo Road and from Ilode to Mokuro to Esinmirin.
(i) Rehabilitation of Ife-Ipetu-Ilesa-Akure road
(j) Oora stream channelization
(k) Facilitated Projects in OAU
(l) Rehabilitation of Ife Ondo Road
(m) Solar powered boreholeds at various locations in Ile-Ife, Osun East
(n) Solar powered streed lighting at vaious locationsin Ife, Ilesha and Osun Estate
(o) Injection sub-station 132/33kv at Imo in Ilesha
(p) Dualization of Mayfair-Lagere-Enuwa-Moore-Ilesha Bye pass-Akure
(q) Rehabilitation of Ife-Ibadan Road
(r) Secondary pipe distribution to Iwo water works

HEALTH
(a) He facilitated projects in OAUTH Human Capital Development (Education, Youth Development and Economic Empowerment) (a) Living Spring Free Trade Zone, Oshogbo (b) NAPEP (c) SMEDAN.
Although he lost his seat in the Senate in the national elections of 2011, Omisore remains undaunted in his commitment to the development of Osun State, as well as the overall stability and economic progress of Nigeria. He has retained his extensive ties with the legislative and executive process to ensure sustained investments in all the projects above, and contribute to national directions adopting concessional and the public private financing approach for sustained impact.

Many marvel at Omisore’s grassroot strength. But we can tell you that Iyiola Omisore sprang to recognition and prominence with his people as a result of his philanthropic activities over two decades ago. At the last count he has personally funded or facilitated the funding of 250 projects widely spread all over his home state of Osun and in other states in Nigeria.

The philanthropist when asked about his contribution to the development of the Yoruba youths responded by saying, “I organize scholarship programmes, pay school fees of less privileged students, help the needy ones. These are things which are part of the life people responsive leadership, the heritage of my birth ‘Bibi Ire’ that our forbearers often charged us to always recall, and the duty I bear on account of my faith that through one person God provides for us all. These principles are the pillars of my commitment to philanthropy.

OMISORE & THE POLITICAL STATUS
My Spirit, Body And Soul Is Out Of PDP ~Omisore

The incoming governor of Osun state under the platform of Social Democratic Party-SDP, Senator Iyiola Omisore has further declare to the general public that he has finally defect PDP long time ago but now associates himself with Social Democratic Party-SDP, a political party where impunity is not the order of the day, indiscipline is not encourage but moral principles and good leadership qualities are the primary objectives.

According to the bible, Thomas is synonymous to "DOUBT" because he does not believe the resurrection of Jesus Christ until Jesus appeared to him physically. This portrayed him as a man of little faith. If by now, anybody who is out there aligning his political association with PDP must have travelled thousands kilometre away from Osun state and such person failed to seek update of all political happening in the state before his arrival.

The senatorial rally of Social Democratic Party-SDP in Ife/Ijesa zone is also a strong indication that Senator Iyiola Omisore is now galloping on the white horse to Abere in the forthcoming governorship election in Osun state. He therefore urged the general public to be cautious of fake news, rumours, blackmail, and seeds of discord that may be sown among them from external quarters

If Baba Akande claimed Omisore is innocent
That means he knows who is involved, did he tell you who?
The general perception is that Omisore was involved.
Why didnt pdp field him again? Even the Sdp he went to hás been factionized.
We saw the video of Friyo and how he told Kiyamo that he was approached by Omisore's ppl to carry out an assassination on Ige.
Omisore also publicly assulted Ige at an event.
Omisore can only be the governor of Ife. You ppl should give him ur votes and allow the rest of Osun to choose their governor
Tija ko!
Till then, let the masses decide. Moreover Omisore also kill Isiaka Adeleke abi?

I am supporting Oyetola ( ileri) because Apc incrediby well in Oyo in the midst of little resources. I want someone that shares Aregbe`s idea to continue.
Olodo ni e. The issue of Omisore involvement in Bola Ige's death has been cleared even Baba Akande said it in a public programme that Omisore has no hands in Bola Ige's death. Moreover who among the politician have a clean hands? If I may ask does Omisore also kill Late Isiak ADELEKE?

HOW AREGBESOLA-LED APC GOVERNMENT MISRULE OSUN STATE IN 8 YEARS —OMISORE

•AS SDP RELEASES RULING PARTY’S SCORECARD •SAYS OSUN MAY NOT WRIGGLE OUT OF ITS DEBT BURDEN BY 2040

THE governorship candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in Osun State, Senator Iyiola Omisore, has bemoaned the eight years of the All Progressives Congress (APC) government led by Governor Rauf Aregbesola in the state, regretting that, “Osun State has become publicly acknowledged as the worst governed state in Nigeria.”

Omisore, reacting on Saturday, in Osogbo, to a 10-page document entitled, “A Snap Shot of Governance and Development in Osun State (2010 – 2018),” released by the SDP, to assess the performance of the eight-year of Aregbesola administration, said, the party had, in 2014, released a similar document, covering a period of 201-2014, but with findings now indicating that things have grown worse than how it was four years ago.

The party said the release provided “a credible and verifiable benchmark against which governance, economic and social investment in the state can be assessed, while it also presented a shadow report on governance and accountability, as it evaluated the Rauf Aregbesola’s APC-led government against its own published manifesto.”

Omisore, who regretted that “an ineptitude in governance has persisted till today,” said that the “current snap shot presents the 2014 report as a baseline and takes it further to provide a scorecard of the second term of the administration of Rauf Aregbesola and the APC in Osun State, a period extending from 2014-2018.

The SDP 2018 snap shot, as presented, addresses financial management and fiscal responsibility, public transparency, public administration and procurement, infrastructure, education, health, youth development in addition to citizen’s neglect and a betrayal of trust.

Financial Management and Fiscal Responsibility

The party in its score card of Aregbesola’s government between 2010 and 2014, presented “a red alert report on public financial management and fiscal responsibility, which it said it arrived at in “comparative analysis of debts and revenue across states in the south west, where it “highlighted the financial impropriety in the comparison between Lagos and Osun State, submitting that there was “fundamental recklessness in fiscal management in Osun State.

“At this time, the state owes well over N400 billion as loans and advances from a very wide array of lenders. Its debt to GDP ratio also presents this as both sustainable and ridiculous given its capacity for earning and opportunities for enterprise,” the score card said.

The party quoting from a publication from NEITI with facts and data it said it got from National Bureau of Statistics, the Accountant General of the Federation and Debt Management Office reports, it said, “Osun and Lagos are leading the total debt profiles of state governments,” and it said, “The debt exceeded revenue by over 480%.”

According to the report, “there are months the state don’t even get up to NGN100 million after the Irrevocable Standing Payment Order (ISPO). It has been a wage bill of N2.6bn and has a meagre Internally Generated Revenue (IGR),” yet, referring to the National Debit Management Office (DMO), which it said puts the state’s Sukuk loan at NGN11.4bn, and $65m from Islamic Development Bank, another NGN88.6bn bond.”

Consequently, The SDP put the debt profile of Osun State under the current government at around N350bn, which it called “a far cry from the N171.4bn the governor claimed the state owed and will be paid before 2020.”

It said the government’s “alarming debt profile needs to be placed in context of revenue from statutory allocations and internally generated revenue, likewise, “the accountability and transparent initiative BudgIT reports growth of 32.6% IGR in Osun state against an external debt burden of 32.6% an indication that the growth in the debt stock of the state far exceeds its capacity for IGR.”

In addition, the SDP said “based on current debt burden, NGN7.22bn is deducted monthly from the state allocations from the Federal coffers, leaving NGN1.19bn per month to support the state budget,” adding that, “the 2018 proposed budget of Osun state estimates an annual expenditure of NGN 172,9billion, a amount in excess of its combined volume of statutory allocation and IGR,”

As a result of the state’s “huge debt profile,” the party said, financial experts had suggested “an urgent and proactive action to manage the finances of the state, and project that even with all frugality, it might be a challenge to wriggle out of the debt burden by 2040. This is a fiscal emergency that must be permitted to continue.”

Public transparency

The report also faulted Aregbesola on public transparency, saying his government did not up live up to the standard set in a recent review of transparency, which it said was published by BudgIT on its website, where it said all states, including the Federal Government were assessed for transparency in its budget processes as well as the domestication of the Freedom of Information Act.

Based on BudgIT’s submission, the SDP said, “It is hardly surprising that Osun state counted among those that have neither domesticated the FOI bill, not published its budget on the website and has refused to submit this for public analysis and scrutiny.”

Public Administration and Procurement

On public administration and procurement, the SDP said “fear, intimidation, coercion and patronage appear to be firmly established as the principle of public administration and management in Osun State, alleging that, “not only has the state failed to pay wages, one of the worst forms of worker intimination and coercion, it has also failed in timely appointment of commissioners and to other key accountability and inclusion primitive offices in the state.

“Consequently, it said, “the administration is a one-man show of the governor and his kitchen cabinet which includes his deputy and a few frequently recycled aides from Lagos, an action, which the party said, was “driven by lack of both accountability and transparency.

It regretted that, “procurement systems in the state have been largely driven by instructions by distant paymasters thus denying indigenes of the state the opportunities for inclusion and benefit from their own affairs. In the face of this, staff training and professionalism have dwindled.”

Infrastructure

“Osun-Hub (O-Hub) initiative of the government to see to the development of Infrastructure to establish the state as a commercial in South West has also been a monumental failure. It was a scam ab-initio. There is practically nothing to show for the humongous debt the state has incurred.

“Over N15bn has been spent on the failed airport in Ido-Osun and the governor now blame the concessionaire. There had been two earlier contracts before the last concession with no result so far. Spending on the airport grew from the initial N4.7bn to N11bn to the current N15bn,” the SDP alleged in its report.

Education

On education, SDP said, “from the re-classification of schools (mega schools) to the common uniform and ‘Opon Imo,’ the state has experienced major disasters and set back to educational systems and consequently to educational performance at all levels. Public sector educational institutions at primary and secondary levels are in complete chaos. In this sector more than others, chronic mismanagement has had immediate negative impact.”

It referred the “common uniform” in the state as “a colossal disaster,” saying, “schools identity which hitherto was one of pride were confused, and the Omoluabi Garment Factory, which it said “was established with public financing to produce school uniforms,” had denied a hitherto vibrant independent private school uniform producers income,” faulting the action of Governor Aregbesola and his deputy parading themselves in these uniforms from school to school, “only to be ridiculed by the students and citizens,” SDP said.

The report further said on education: “Early days of the administration witness a very confusing re-classification of schools into middle and high schools in conflict with the nationally approved and implemented 6-3-3-4 system of education. Schools were merged, students and teachers relocated.

“The massive outcry from Alumni and citizens were again ignored by an arrogant and stiff necked government. The result is where we are today. Mega schools with mega failure. Newly constructed schools built with the shared heritage of citizens collapsed under the leadership of the Governor who served as the Commissioner for Works and his Deputy who was the Commissioner for Education.

“Perhaps the most disastrous educational policy is the ‘Opon Imo’ which literally translates as the ‘Tablet of Knowledge’. This tablet which was designed to hold all text books and instructional materials for students was managed by the Governor’s son and cost the state a whooping NGN 8.4billion! Announced to be provided for 150,000 students, well below 10, 000 tablets were delivered.

“Many errors were found in almost every subject in the tablet. In chapter one which is titled “Number base System”, out of 5 questions provided, 4 are either wrongly stated or the answers supplied are equally wrong. Neither the schools, nor the teachers and students were provided with the required infrastructure to use them. By 2018, Opon Imo does not exist in any school. More distressing, year on year, students in the state have descended in the league tables for all external examinations, to an all time low in the most recent examinations

“This situation is further challenged by the incessant industrial action in tertiary institutions in the state, which have over the past 8 years experienced more months when they have been closed than have offered educational services and support to the teeming population of young people in the state. Teacher motivation is at its lowest ebb as dismissals are arbitrary, salaries have been unpaid and there is been a near absence of investment in both learning and teaching infrastructure.

“The reversal in educational outcomes in the state comes as little surprise. Since 2010 when the current government came on board, the state has remained in the bottom rudder of performance ranking in external examinations. Recent statistics from WAEC present the performance index in the state out of 36 states as 22nd, 30th, 29th and 24th in 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 respectively.

“In each of these years, Osun state performed worst amongst its peers in South West Nigeria. Results from NECO are even more dismal. The total corruption in the educational system has impacted on students. According to WAEC, the state has the highest record of examination fraud as 10.20% of the students are involved in malpractice; the highest in South West compared to neighbouring Ondo state with 1.57%. Overall it would appear that the only outcome of mega schools is mega failure!”

Agriculture

On agriculture, SDP said, “top on Aregbesola’s manifesto especially during his re-election is that the largely rural state would get a turn around. Aregbesola stated that the turn-around would be anchored mainly on agriculture and he intends to turn the state into the food basket of the region at least. He said Osun intended to meet up with the estimated N3.5 billion worth of food in demand in the Lagos market alone.”

However, the party, in its report, faulted the government’s plan, saying, “it was to edge out the northern states supplying the bulk of the food stuff in Lagos, by exploiting the proximity of Osun State to Lagos, alleging that, “five years down the line, many are yet to see the impact of the huge money the Aregbesola government claimed to have invested in agriculture so as to actualize this dream.

“Growers in the state still remain largely subsistence farmers. Aregbesola’s talk about massive food production has remained chiefly a mirage. Now, a state whose turn-around is supposed to be anchored on agriculture and agro-allied industries is in crisis. The state has great untapped agricultural potentials that could make the state viable. Commercial agriculture is still in comatose,” SDP said.

Youth Empowerment

It said on youth empowerment, “With support from a major multilateral lending bank, the Osun state youth empowerment programme (O’YES) was packed to be flagship and impactful. In its design, it was to provide employment opportunities to its large youthful population, who comprise an estimated 67% of the population of the state.

“The 2014 scorecard reported widespread frustration and disappointment with the O’YES programme. Young graduates were directed to sweeping streets and sewers for a pittance which was paid to them infrequently. Payment was also driven by politics and patronage. Neither skills nor competence was passed on to these young people. By 2018, O’Yes and the multiplicity of other O’Gbese programmes of Rauf Aregbesola and his team have all become O’dead!”

On health, the SDP said though, the limited state level data prevent a detailed analysis of the status of the health sector in Osun State, but a picture tells a million stories, while it contended that, “facility utilisation is at its lowest ebb and reports from facilities suggest high and rising levels of both ill health and death particularly amongst children, women and the aged.”

It alleged that, “public finance has been invested in the purchase of a state of the art ambulance for a primary care facility that has neither driver nor patients! Inputs provided by major national initiatives to save lives are presented mainly as posters in a poorly managed facility. Maternal and safe motherhood kits are shown as poorly deployed and managed. Health worker staff has been incessant, and it would appear that the cumulative strike period is well over 6 years. It is reported that facility utilisation is at its lowest ebb.

“The recently launched Osun health Insurance scheme was not well planned. The state government did not study the insurance scheme as it is obtainable in the developed countries and also nationally. Most of the insurance scheme as practiced everywhere are always liberal and as such give patients a wide range of facilities of choice while patients can change from one to the other if services are not satisfactory.

“The Osun health insurance as planned now will only limit patients to the services of the dilapidated primary health care centres thus patients are already sceptical of this scheme. Health care Maintenance (HMO) is left out of the scheme thus making the scheme not practicable. It is worth of note that 2.5 billion was released for the take off of this destined to fail project.”

Citizens’ neglect and trust betrayal

“The sorry state of payment of dues and remuneration extends well beyond those currently in service. Pensioners and retirees who have diligently and meritoriously over many years gave the best of their prime to the state have been unpaid their dues and allowances. They dot corners, streets and homes appealing for support and help.

“Their repeated calls to the state for social justice and the payment of their pensions have fallen on deaf ears. It is not therefore surprising that after many months of hunger, inability to support medical bills attendant on old age in addition to the acceptance that their children who are also civil servants in the state are also unpaid, the old, frail and weary have also joined the public outcry in public demonstration and demand for justice.

“But the ‘skelewu’ dancing governor would have none of this. His personal life style was one wealth and comfort. In an attempt to avoid violent reaction of citizens and indigenes in the state, Rauf Aregbesola exported the wedding of his daughter to Lagos, in pretty much the same way he has exported jobs, enterprise opportunities and major procurement away from the indigenes and citizen’s he took an oath to provide for and protect.

“The grand and lavish ceremony took place in Lagos, supported by his APC paymasters and colleagues, the reckless governor and his family danced all night, while the people of Osun state continued in lack, want and hunger of unimaginable proportion. Without doubt, this betrayal of the electorate, and the trust they have in democratic governance can only be identified as bad governance at its topmost height.

“In spite of the distress signals in the economic fortunes of the state, its leadership continued implementation of an unsustainable plethora of initiatives and programmes. As of these recorded higher levels of monumental failure year on year, wise investors took to their heels. This has left the state in a more tenuous state, not because it lacks the human capital and human resources to attract and retain investors, but on account of a loss of investor confidence in the leadership capacity of the state, transparency in procurement procedures and adherence to standard practices of both fiscal and debt management.

“It would sadly appear that an additional four years of the judicial governor of the state of Osun, and his imported APC team, not much has changed since 2014 when the last scorecard was published. On the contrary, situations of worsened across all sectors. The Rauf Aregbesola-led APC government in the state has not only displayed the highest level of criminal corruption of governance and procurement but has gone much further to neglect citizens, betray their trust and ultimately lost their confidence.

“Rather than banish hunger and poverty as stated in the manifesto presented to the state in 2014, the visionless leadership in the state has recklessly and with gross insensitivity exacerbated both, with resultant deepening of vulnerabilities and loss of human dignity. It is this dismal and sorry state that citizens of Osun state find themselves as they face the 2018 elections. Committed and transparent leadership is the key contributor to good governance, ad good governance the driver for development,” the SDP said.

Consequent upon the “low performance” of the government, according to SDP’s score card, the party said, “the urgency to restore good governance to Osun State cannot be more emphasised at this time, adding that “the pain and suffering of eight years can no longer be borne by innocent women and children.

As a result, the party said, “the clarion call to restore human dignity and peace is strident. This is the focus of the Social Democratic Party in Osun state as it presents its Agenda for the Restoration of Good Governance and Human Dignity and the experienced of Senator Iyiola Omisore, to take on the mantle of leadership for progress and positive impact.”

Barr. Niyi Owolade Osun PDP lawyer advised party to shopping for another platform to field their candidate for September 22, on next gubernatorial election bcs of the Abuja court adjournment may be affected the party primary!
He also refers to refrains of INEC from participated in party Congress as a dilemma.
With the adjournment today of the case instituted by elected delegates of PDP in 2017 in their case against the party at the national and state levels,to say that all is not well with the Osun State chapter of the party is to say the obvious.
The Abuja High Court which adjourned the case from 4th June 2018 without vacating the injunction served to restrain the party from going ahead with any other congress, has again adjourned the case till October this year without vacating the extant order.
INEC as an important party in the suit had denied the knowledge of the congresses purportedly conducted by the party in Osun. This rebuttal by INEC is
one of the several hurdles the party has to scale before it can have a candidate in the coming election.

As observed by political pundits, the claim of alibi by INEC over the congresses illegally conducted by the party has dealt a deadly blow and a major set back to the party's preparation for it's governorship primary election on July 17th.

A school of thought is of the opinion that same INEC that denied being aware of other dealings of the party after it has been served the court processed way back in March 2018 can't be in attendance again to supervise the party's primary, without committing contempt of court.

"INEC'S position on the matter is clear, it is very clear that the body will not show up at the PDP's primary except the order is vacated before then. Otherwise any candidate picked at the primary is already disqualified in the eye of the law".

An Abuja based lawyer stated that with the adjournment and the refusal of the court to vacate its order of injunction, the chance of Osun PDP is getting slim.

He submitted that should the party go ahead and conduct its primaries on the 17th of July whoever emerges would be a product of illegality.
.
Another observer posited that the likelihood of not having the logo of PDP on the ballot papers in the coming gubernatorial election in Osun state can't be ruled out.

"The refusal of the court to vacate the order in it's simplest interpretation is that everything done after the order had been served in March 2018, is null and void. This simply means that both local and State executives of the party are not known to law.

Furthermore, any new set of delegates produced by the Party while the case is pending are illegal delegates whose participation in the primaries would render the entire exercise null and void.

"In law the only recognised delegates of the party are those ratified by the National Convention of the party which is the highest organ of the party.""
At the Abuja High Court

PDP's objection to the legality of the court to hear the case was overruled which has constituted a major setback to the party that has been bragging that the case would put to rest today.

Also spirited efforts of the party's lawyers to convince the court to vacate the existing order was an exercise in futility as the court rejected their pleas and sustained the order.
With the sustenance of the order every thing done by the party especially the purported election of its Local and State executives and delegates remain invalid till October, therefore putting the chances and money of its aspirants in jeopardy.
What is certain at this moment is that things are no longer at ease in Osun PDP, as many aspirants are more than being careful in throwing their hats into the ring anymore.

Osun 2018: Cracks in Aregbesola’s Camp Over Oyetola, Oyebamiji’s Gov Aspirations By Segun Adejumo Some loyalists of Governor Rauf Aregbesola of the state of Osun have reportedly rejected the choice of his Chief of Staff, Gboyega Oyetola as the favoured governorship aspirant to succeed the governor. According to sources at the Osun Government House, the Aregbesola loyalists vehemently opposed Oyetola’s aspiration because of the strong agitation that Osun West Senatorial District should produce the next governor of the state. CityMirrorNews learnt that the Aregbesola’s loyalists had conducted several opinion polls on the possibilities of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to win the September 22 governorship election with Oyetola as the party’s candidate. The report of the opinion polls, according the sources, was that Oyetola is not popular among the APC members and the electorate in the state and would spoil the chance of the party to win the election. Also, the loyalists are of the opinion that the ‘Osun West Lokan’ agitation is real, and thus, the governor and the leadership of the party should respect the view of the party members on the choice of aspirant and zoning. It was gathered that the Aregbesola’s loyalists, among who are the current Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Dr Ajibola Basiru, Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Mr Kolapo Alimi, Commissioner for Regional Integration, Mr Bola Ilori, Special Adviser to the Governor on Taxation, the Director, Department of Social and Grassroots Mobilisation and Guidance, Office of the Governor, Comrade Bayo Ojo, held that it would be wrong to choose candidate from central because of the political nature of Osun. CityMirrorNews learnt that Basiru, Ilori and some others held a meeting with Aregbesola late Monday where they told the governor that they could not support Oyetola’s aspiration because it would spell doom for the party. According to the sources, Aregbesola was unable to persuade Basiru, Ilori and others to change their mind at the meeting, as they insisted that Oyetola was ‘a bad product’ and could not be sold to the general electorate. The Aregbesola’s supporters reportedly suggested the current Commissioner for Finance, Mr Bola Oyebamiji to the governor as the most suitable person to support for the APC governorship ticket. They explained that Oyebamiji is from Ikire, Irewole Local Government in Osun West Senatorial District, which would out-rightly kill the ‘Osun West’ agitation, and also change the wrong impression of the people on the governor. On Tuesday, both Basiru and Bola Ilori updated the campaign poster of Oyebamiji on the facebook and twitter accounts with a caption ‘Irewolede, West Lodu’, an indication that they had fully declared their support for him. Findings revealed that Majority Leader of the Osun State House of Assembly, Hon Timothy Owoeye, former APC chairman, Elder Adelowo Adebiyi, Akano, Basiru, Ilori and others held meeting at a hotel around Lameco area, Osogbo to strategise on how to gather support for Oyebamiji. Findings by CityMirrorNews that the development has slightly reduce Oyetola’s followers as some of them believed that both Basiru Ajibola and Bola Ilori could not be acting against Aregbesola’s script. But some other Aregbesola’s commissioners and Special Advisers who are staunch supporters of Oyetola have remained undaunted on the Oyetola’s aspiration, in spite of Basiru and others move. The pro-Oyetola Aregbesola’s loyalists among who are Commissioner for Information and Strategy, State of Osun, Mr Adelani Baderinwa, Commissioner for Innovation, Science and Technology, Engr. Remi Omowaiye, Commissioner for Sports, Social Security, Comrade Biyi Odunlade and Honourable Ajibola Famurewa who is representing Ijesa-South Federal Constituency at the Federal House of Representatives dismissed the insinuation that the governor was in support of Oyebamiji’s governorship aspiration. They stated that the Oyebamiji’s supporters were out for personal political interest.
