Prophet Reveals Candidate That Will Win Oyo Governorship Election

Oyo State ADC governorship candidate, Senator Olufemi Lanlehin, has described women as dependable allies, whose support a politician can bank on, any day, any time.

Lanlehin, while answering questions at the Splash FM/Lagelu FM Governorship Debate held on Tuesday, at the University of Ibadan’s International Conference Centre, insisted that when sworn in as Oyo State governor come 29 May, 2019, women would be given a pride of place.

“Women are dependable allies, once they support you, you can bank on it. They’re always committed to worthy causes.
To that end, our government will give them a pride of place. We shall provide opportunities for women to excel, and provide them with significant appointments in our government,” Lanlehin said.

Calling on women to participate more in governance, for as he said, “they’re brilliant and hardworking, always putting in their best in whatever is committed to them,” Lanlehin intimated the audience that fairness, equity and justice will be the hallmark of his administration.

Lanlehin, who participated in the debate alongside Chief Bayo Adelabu of the APC, PDP’s Engr Seyi Makinde, ANRP’s Olalekan Ayorinde, Barrister Sarafadeen Alli of the ZLP, and Bolanle Sarumi-Aliyu of the NiP.

On local government, Lanlehin promised full autonomy for local governments, as well as the conduct of free, fair and credible elections at that level, to ensure that third tier of government, described as closest to the people, is headed by those voted for by the people themselves.

The Oyo State ADC governorship candidate who said he supports mentorship, and decries godfatherism added, “I’ve always learnt at the feet of giants, both professionally and politically.

In my profession, I learnt under Chief Gani Fawehinmi, while politically, I learnt under Chief Bola Ige and Alh Lam Adesina,” Lanlehin maintained.

The programme gained much traction when Edmund Obilo anchored the last 30 minutes, wherein he asked candidates simple but direct questions.
Responding to a question on his movements across political parties, Lanlehin maintained that he has always moved from the ruling party to the opposition, and not for once the other way, as a mark of principle, rather than for filthy lucre.

“When I left AD, it was the ruling party. When I left PDP, it was also the ruling party. I left ACN for Accord when ACN was the ruling party.

Once, we give advice, and share sensible opinion and it is thrown out, I take my leave, because for me, politics must essentially be service oriented,” Lanlehin added.
