Governor Abiola Ajimobi’s younger brother, Chief Wasiu Ajimobi has described the decisions of members of the Unity Forum, to defect from the All Progressives Congress, APC, as illogical, baseless, and out of self-centeredness.

Ajimobi, who is in his 40s and an Ibadan Mogaji, spoke during a radio programme monitored by an online medium – www.oyoecho33.com.

OYO INSIGHT had reported how members of the Unity, a breakaway faction of Oyo APC, left the party owing to irreconcilable difference between their leaders and Ajimobi.

The young Ajimobi however explained that the leadership qualities and good characters in Senator Abiola Ajimobi, coupled with his wide political experience always justify his free and fair decisions in the policies of the party in Oyo state.

According to him, ”My brother’s political experience always speak for him anytime there is an issue within the party, it is not is wish to see party members leaving the party but there are some element of greediness in APC, which can’t be stopped from leaving.”

This is just as he dismissed the chances of Sen. Adesoji Akanbi’s against Ajimobi, saying the people of Oyo South senatorial district deserve an experienced and active representation.

He added that Akanbi, who recently defected from the APC to African Democratic Congress, ADC,  had not done something meaningful since he was elected to the red chamber

He also took a swipe at Sen. Monsurat Sunmonu and Dr Wasiu Olatubosun.

Sunmonu, he said said, was made speaker of the Oyo State House of Assembly by his brother when she returned to Nigeria from abroad, adding that “she is ingrate for supporting enemies of the governor.”

He noted that she is opportunist who was made politically relevant by the governor of the state.

Ajimobi further said the senator could have lost the opportunity of representing her people at the Senate in 2015 because, according to him, “she didn’t enjoy the support of her kinsmen from her hometown but the governor facilitated votes in Ibadan to ensure that she became a senator.

“She is just an opportunist. She was made politically relevant by Ajimobi. Being a speaker in Oyo state House of Assembly between 2011 and 2015 which was masterminded by Ajimobi shows she is ungrateful to him. Ajimobi also facilitated votes for him in Ibadanland and if not for the consolatory votes she got from Ibadan, she could have lost the Oyo Central senatorial seat in 2015.

“She is not loved by her people at home in Oyo and that was why they didn’t vote for her in Oyo. It showed in the 2015 election results because she lost almost all the polling units in Oyo town,” he said.

He also said a former chairman of the Ibadan North West local government, Mr. Wasiu Olatunbosun who spent 6 years as council chairman is an ingrate.

“When the issue of making changes to give other people chances to taste power was raised, Olatunbosun started trouble within the party. When he was told he will be withdrawn as chairman to be a commissioner, even with such arrangement, he was still recalcitrant and rejected it. It was then that Ajimobi noticed he was having some hidden activities in his administration as chairman of his council.”
