The governorship candidate of the Labour Party
in Oyo State, Otunba Adebayo Alao Akala has urged the people of Oyo State to
disregard any news of an alliance with any political party or stepping down for
any gubernatorial candidate in the forthcoming election.
Otunba Alao Akala, in a press
statement signed by his campaign organization’s Director of Public
Affairs,
Comrade Oludare Ogunlana, said the news making the rounds is just a figment of
the imagination of the All Progressives Congress which he said is already
jittery about losing the governorship election.
The statement read in part, "we
in Labour Party have not at any time engaged or
entered into an agreement of merging with any political parties as we are
confident of winning the next election as the people of the state have also
resolved to effect change in Oyo State by relieving Senator Abiola Ajimobi
led administration of their inhuman administration and return the government
with human face of Alao Akala".
Otunba Alao Akala stated further that " the people of Oyo State should also ensure proper identification of the Assistant Registration officers and other Adhoc staff of the independent Electoral Commission posted to their domain as many of them are paid agents of the All Progressive Congress who were injected into the system in connivance with some bad eggs at the state INEC office".
The former governor also urged
the people and security agencies in the state to ensure proper monitoring
of the distribution of election materials so as to avoid the occurrence of what
transpired in the last election when election materials meant for some areas
were tampered with.
While reiterating his commitment to
effectively serve the people and restore the state to the path of economic
prosperity, Otunba Alao Akala said " I am committed to ensure a greater
Oyo State and this can only be achieved through effective administration and
prudent management of resources as well as infrastructural build up and
formulation and implementation of programs and policies that will make life
better for all and sundry'.
The former Governor also promised to
ensure proper beautification of Ibadan and ensure the interior and rural
roads as well as those in major town and cities are given facelift so as
to make them accessible for growth and development.
He urged the people of the state to
vote for the gubernatorial and State House of Assembly candidates of the
Labour Party for genuine development and effective administration that
will return smiles to the faces of the people .
