All Progressives Congress (APC) in the State of Osun has challenged the PDP’s flag bearer, Iyiola Omisore to identify what landmark achievement he has recorded in his over two decades of active participation in the politics of the State in particular which qualifies him to challenge Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola in order to replace the governor in November 2014.

According to Barrister Kunle Oyatomi, the party’s Director of Publicity, Research and Strategy, Omisore should first tell the people of Osun what spectacular thing he has done for Ife which he plans to replicate across the state that surpasses what Aregbesola has done in Ile Ife in just 42 months as governor.

“For instance, before Aregbesola became governor, most roads were impassable in Ile Ife. It took the governor inside two years to amongst others, make the following roads motorable: Lokore – Okesoda, Mbabi Mbayo, Lofogido, Agbedegbede, Igboya – Fajuyi, and Mokuro roads.

“Besides, Baptist Elementary School was a dilapidated, sorry sight until Aregbesola made it a spectacle to behold, which amongst others drew a comment from His Royal Majesty, the Ooni of Ife, Oba Okunade Sijuade that ‘Aregbesola has performed beyond expectation… I see this’. There is also a magnificent Middle School.

“This is just a tip of the ice-berg of what Ogbeni Aregbesola has done and continues to do in Ile Ife alone, not to talk of the whole state,” the APC stressed.

The party therefore asked Omisore to tell the people of Osun what verifiable thing he has done or influenced to be done in Ile Ife that surpasses what Aregbesola has done between 2010 and 2014 in the hometown of Omisore, that should make Ile Ife vote for him to take over Aregbesola’s job.

The party added that “if Omisore can point to one such project in his ward, he may qualify to run as a councillor, but unfortunately, there is nothing in his ward to qualify him run as councillor. He lost that ward in 2011.

“So why does Omisore think he can challenge Ogbeni Aregbesola as governor in the state of Osun?” the APC asked.
