A Chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in Ogbomoso North Local Government, Hon Martins Iyanda has described the rantings of some people in the All Progressives Congres, APC against Hon Akinwale Akinwole’s recent defection to the Peoples Democratic, PDP as inconsequential.
Iyanda who is the chairman of the party in Ward 9, Osupa, where Wolekanle and his supporters defected to the PDP said their reactions are evidences that they are not only jittery but already mourning the loss that awaits them in the susbequent elections.
Speaking with Journalists on Sunday, he said, “We are happy that such a bigwig who has been a strong pillar of support for their party and all and sundry is coming into the PDP when he realized the fact that the APC which he claims to be progressive party is nothing but a party where deceit and unchecked crisis reign.
“8 years of the APC rule in Oyo state has brought nothing meaningful to Ogbomoso but overbloated ego, and poorly executed dual carriaged road without any consideration for the people.
“Today we are privy to have a Governor who is passionate about the People’s wishes and laying a solid foundation for the future of the state. Most of the people who cried during the APC days are now similing nothing because Governor Makinde has restored their hope.
“Wolekanle is a philantrophist whose contributions to the land of Ogbomoso and Oyo state cannot be underestimated. They want him to stay back in APC so that they can continue to milk him and waste his time, using decietful tactics to jeopardize his bright political chances in PDP.
“His coming into PDP is a blessing to us. So those who are disgruntled should be ignored because they have no political value.”
