A governorship aspirant on the platform of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Sen. Olufemi Lanlehin, has said that the administration of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has worsened the situation of people in Oyo State.
SOLAN, as the immediate past Senator representing Oyo South Senatorial District is fondly called, made this disclosure when he visited the Oyo ADC secretariat to pick up nomination and expression of interest forms yesterday to formalize his intention to contest the governorship election in Oyo State.
Lanlehin, accompanied by supporters, loyalists and several party members, met with members of the State Executive Council of the party at the party secretariat along Old Ife road, Ibadan, assuring them of his continued support and loyalty to the party, as well as affirming his strong belief in the capacity of the party to take over governance in the state come 2019.
In his words, “our party is pro-people; with the welfare of the people our major concern, the handshake which symbolises mutual cooperation, our symbol, and particularly, with the pitiable state that the current government has taken governance to in the state, our people are willing, able and ready to change this change.”
While praising the courage, steadfastness and loyalty of party members, especially their commitment and service, which has resulted in the huge popularity the party has achieved in no short time, he promised them, and indeed the people of Oyo State, a government that is compassionate and caring, come 2019.
Present at the event were members of the state caretaker committee of the party.
