Aderemi Oseni, a chartered engineer and gubernatorial aspirant under the platform of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has obtained the nomination form and expression of interest form.
The CEO of Step Development Limited who hails from Ido local government obtained the form on Tuesday in Ibadan, the state capital.
Oseni while speaking expressed confidence in becoming the party’s flag bearer at the 2019 governorship election in the state.
The engineer had earlier in an interview with the Nigerian Tribune explained what motivated him to join politics.
“I am not new in politics; I have been in politics since our days at Accord Party under the leadership of Senator Rashidi Ladoja. The fact that some of us chose to be at the background does not make us new in politics; I have been in politics for some time now. Aside from that, you will discover that year in year out, a lot of us prefer to seat in the comfort of our homes and keep complaining that things are not going on well.”
“Sometimes, we play the ostrich, not wanting to take up challenges. What I am saying essentially is that it is high time that people of good conscience, people with genuine fear of God put their hands on the plough without looking back.
“It is a sacrifice we need to make if we must rescue our land from this sordid level of poverty, oppression and alarming rate of unemployment. As for me, I can no longer sit back. I have a burning desire to serve our people with a good conscience and genuine fear of God and there is a giant in me that is saying to me that it is doable; it is achievable. As a member of African Democratic Party, and a gubernatorial aspirant, my vision is to turn the teeming youths of Oyo state into employers of labour and to give our people life in abundance.”
