Speaking in his new year message, the former special adviser on works and transport to former governor Abiola Ajimobi, said that APC is still the majority party in Oyo State with 2 senators and 9 out of 14 federal house of representatives members.
“2019 was a wonderful year and I hope and pray that 2020 will be a better year for our country Nigeria. What is most important is that President Muhammadu Buhari has set a lot of things in place from stable currency, the closure of boarders that has help the local production of rice, availability of PMS and reduced the insurgents attack to discriminate areas.
“I urge Nigerians to support this Government to enable it optimise the potential of delivering the dividends of democracy. The little grey areas such as power, security and corruption can be taken care off if we give this government a chance.
“For Oyo state, the election has come and gone. We fought up to supreme court and unfortunately and sadly we lost. Governor Ajimobi achieved so much in the areas of security, infrastructure, health and education in our state and as a progressive I have no option than to wish Governor Seyi Makinde well and to take our treasured state to a higher level.
“Our party made some mistakes and I believe we have learned our lesson and 2023 is around the corner May God spare our life We are taking over God willing.
“APC is still the majority party in Oyo State with 2 Senators and 9 out of 14 federal house of representatives. Chief Adelabu was more positioned to win the last Election but some people conspired against APC and am sure they are also not happy right now for their actions.
“I wish everyone of us Happy and prosperous New year,” he concluded.
