Lithiumite:
Ilesha votes and ife east where adeleke isn't expected to beat apc will be the decider and adeleke needs to do a lot of work because the results from central are really not encouraging for adeleke.

Lithiumite:
Accord is expected to win osogbo but apc is making a strong showing. But we expect Ede to cover for any loss adeleke suffers in Osogbo.

AMINDA:
Ingratitude is not a virtue.

Baba Oyinlola is one of those who will make people stop doing good without broadcasting it. How can you deny this in public?

Thank God for whoever made this short video; otherwise, the ingrate Lagun would have completely vindicated himself with his lies.

God bless you, Governor… pic.twitter.com/MlFRmNoxFM

Former Osun State Governor, Olagunsoye Oyinlola, has denied claims that the incumbent governor, Ademola Adeleke, personally bought or gave him a vehicle.

Oyinlola made the clarification on Thursday during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today, where he explained that the vehicle provided to him was a benefit guaranteed to former governors under a law enacted by the Osun State House of Assembly.

The former governor said the provision was not a personal gesture from Adeleke, but an obligation of the state government under the law.

According to Oyinlola, the law provides that former governors are entitled to have their official vehicle replaced every four years.

He pointed out that he has been out of office for 16 years, meaning that, under the arrangement, the vehicle allocated to him would have been due for replacement several times.

“That is far from the truth, and it is a sad development that a governor will continue to tell lies,” Oyinlola said during the interview.

He explained that the legislation covers benefits available to individuals who have previously governed the state and is not dependent on the identity of the governor currently in office.

“One of the things that is accrued to a former governor is that for every four years, his vehicle should be changed. It wasn’t Adeleke that gave me a car but Osun State government. It is a law,” he stated.

Oyinlola's comments come amid political disagreements in Osun State ahead of the August 15 governorship election, with political figures from the major parties exchanging claims and counterclaims over issues surrounding governance and the state's political leadership.

The former governor's clarification therefore places his position on the vehicle issue within the context of an existing state law, rather than portraying it as a personal gift from the incumbent governor.

Elders in the Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress have met with a former governor of the state, Bisi Akande, to review the party’s preparations ahead of Saturday’s governorship poll.

Although the meeting was held at Akande’s country home in the Ila Orangun area of the state on Saturday, a photograph taken after the meeting showing Akande and his deputy, Senator Iyiola Omisore, walking hand-in-hand went viral on Sunday.

Two participants at the meeting who preferred anonymity as they were not authorised to comment on the matter told The PUNCH that the party’s governorship campaigns were reviewed, and suggestions were made to further strengthen the party’s chances at the poll.

One of the sources said, “Many elders of the party were present and, majorly, the group, Osun APC Elders’ Caucus, reviewed the party’s campaigns so far and made some suggestions.”

Asked if Akande and Omisore held a private meeting after the meeting, the source said, “No, not to my knowledge. After the meeting, we all left. So I’m unaware of any private meeting between Baba Akande and Senator Omisore.”

Asked if Akande and Omisore held a private meeting after the meeting, the source said, “No, not to my knowledge. After the meeting, we all left. So I’m unaware of any private meeting between Baba Akande and Senator Omisore.”

When contacted for further comments on the said Akande-Omisore photograph, the Director-General, Omisore Campaign Organisation, Mr Ajibola Famurewa, who was also present at the meeting, confirmed that the photograph was taken at the meeting.

“It was after the meeting of the Osun APC Elder Caucus (Agba Osun) at Chief Bisi Akande’s house that Otunba and Baba Akande went to his dining room for lunch. The photograph was taken at the meeting.

“After the lunch, Baba escorted him out to his vehicle, and we had a very reasonable discussion, which was all about what we have to do to win the election. Everybody said what they had in mind,” Famurewa stated.

Giving further insight into the discussions at the meeting, Famurewa said, “Yesterday, we assessed the whole campaign and highlighted where we think we have issues. He (Omisore) provided solutions, and everyone rubbed minds together, and we arrived at a reasonable conclusion.”

The electorate in Osun State will be going to the poll on Saturday, August 15, to elect a governor and 14 political parties, including the current ruling party in the state, the Accord Party, fielding Governor Ademola Adeleke, and the APC, have been cleared to participate in the poll by the Independent National Electoral Commission.
