The Deputy National Chairman (South) of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Ambassador Taofeek Arapaja has predicted that the party will win the 2023 gubernatorial, National Assembly and state House of Assembly elections in the State.
Arapaja said the victory of the party in the State will be made possible because its gubernatorial candidate, Engr. Seyi Makinde has performed excellently well and people in the state are already satisfied and wants the continuity of his government.
Arapaja spoke today while holding an expanded meeting with party stakeholders from the Ibadan South East Local Government at his Felele residence in Ibadan.
The Chairman of Oyo State Pace Setter Transport Services limited, Hon. Dare Adeleke, Hon. Akeem Ige – Special Adviser to Oyo State Governor on Culture and Tourism, Hon. Alawode Oluwole – Chairman Ibadan South East Local Government, Hon. Abass Adigun Agboworin – member representing Ibadan South East and North East Federal constituency, Mogaji Abass Oloko and other leaders of the party from the local government were also present at the meeting.
In a release issued and made available to journalists by the Personal Assistant to Ambassador Arapaja, Bamitale Ibrahim at the end of the meeting, Arapaja appealed to whoever among the party stalwarts that may have grievances against any of the candidates fielded by the party to embrace dialogue and allow amicable resolution in the interest of the party.
Ambassador Arapaja added that while Governor Makinde has made the campaign easier for the party, it was necessary for every party man who knows his onion to ensure he delivers at least his polling unit so as to be bold enough to partake in the Omi Tuntun 2.0 government.
While urging members of the party who he might have offended to forgive and cooperate with him, Hon. Abass Adigun Agboworin who is seeking re-election to represent the Ibadan South East/North East Constituency again, allayed the fear of the members in the coming polls, stressing that his overwhelming performances in all the wards in the two local governments are already speaking for him.
