Omisore’s political career’ll end Aug 9 — Senator Adeyeye

•He’s bereft of political realities —Omisore

Chairman of the Campaign Committee for the re-election of Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun State, who is also the senator representing Osun Central senatorial district,  Professor Sola Adeyeye, has said the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate, Senator Iyiola Omisore’s political career will eclipse with impending defeat awaiting him in August 9, 2014.

Adeyeye, who made this assertion, in Osogbo, during the inauguration of a 20-man state campaign committee to coordinate the re-election of Aregbesola, said the forthcoming election would  put a final stop to Omisore’s political aspiration because his defeat would be devastating and final.

He contended that his committee was saddled with the responsibility of coordinating campaign for the re-election of Governor Aregbesola, expressing confidence that the PDP’s candidate would not win a single ward.

The committee has as its secretary Professor John Adebunmi Ayoade, a former deputy director,  Centre for Democratic Studies (CDS).

But, Omisore, on Tuesday, described the position of Adeyeye as uninformed and lacking substance, stressing that Aregbesola and the All Progressives Congress (APC) should dwell more on issues and what they have to offer the people in terms of manifestos, rather than make his name subject of discussion all the time.

Speaking through his director of media and strategy, Mr Diran Odeyemi, in statement forwarded to the  Nigerian  Tribune in Osogbo, he stressed that “Adeyeye is completely bereft of political and socio-economic realities in Osun and this informed his ridiculous statement on the August 9, 2014 governorship poll.

“These people are strangers, who are totally in the dark as far politics of Osun State is concerned. They thought our people are fools. The policies of their government which have fueled poverty among communities, dislocated the hitherto organised school system and the wanton destruction of individual properties in the name of urban renewal projects are visible achievements of Aregbesola’s unpopular government,” Omisore asserted.

He continued: “By the time our people, who have lost their economic survival to the Lagos State businessmen and contractors through capital flight react via electoral process by voting out APC, Aregbesola and his cohorts on August 9, stark realities of rejection would ultimately dawn on them.”
