It is obvious former governor Rashidi Ladoja has a score to settle with members of the African Democratic Congress, ADC.
Ladoja, who defected to the Zenith Labour Party, ZLP, few weeks ago, owing to what he described as non-inclusion selection process in ADC, spoke on a Gravity FM and monitored by OYO INSIGHT.
The former governor lamented that he was just an edifice without influence when he was in ADC.
He insisted that candidates selection procedure made him to leave the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
He said that “they started doing things they didn’t tell us before we joined the party. They didn’t tell us that some persons will be given automatic ticket.
“We questioned the integrity of those the wanted to give automatic ticket. What is the assurance that people will vote for them.
“When we saw that we couldn’t persuade them to do the right thing, we decided to leave the party because we aren’t sure of its future.”
Ladoja also spoke about the chances of ZLP governorship candidate.
He said, “I will only counsel Sarafadeen Alli when he becomes governor. I can’t run his government for him. He would be the one to receive praises or insults, so he will do well to heed to good counsels”.
This is just as he revealed that he retired from seeking political offices because he overworked himself while he was the governor of the state.
He said that the need to rest, attend to family demands made his to retire from seeking elective positions, because, the situation at hand now deserves the need to rest.
He reiterated that the 2015 gubernatorial election in the state was not free and fair, leading to the suit his party filed to the election tribunal.
Ladoja while speaking said, “We have done what we could do, but I have said I won’t be vying for any office again.
“I almost neglected my family when I was in government because I gave my all to ensure good governance.
