The Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has cautioned the leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to desist from living in a fool’s paradise by selling a dummy to the public on the true position of the security of the state under the rudderless administration of Governor Ademola Adeleke.
The factional chairman of the Osun State PDP, Mr Sunday Bisi, issued a press statement today alleging his awareness of ‘the arms buildup by a faction of the APC, which is the reason for their naked effrontery of issuing threats to their perceived political opponents’
Commenting on the development, the Osun State chairman of the APC, Sooko Tajudeen Lawal, in a statement issued by the party’s Director of Media and Information, Chief Kola Olabisi, today, stated that it was strange that such an unguarded allegation about threat to peace and security could be elevated by an assumed party leader.
Lawal noted that those who know the author of the statement might not be bothered much as no discerning mind could expect something better from Sunday Bisi, a natural and habitual drunkard.
According to Lawal: “Is the memory of Sunday Bisi playing him false to the extent that he has forgotten so soon that an appointee of Governor Adeleke, Dauda Olalekan, popularly known as ‘Emir Ajagungbade’ is currently on trial at different courts of the land over murder, kidnapping and terrorism; and that another daredevil PDP thug, Bode Itaapa, who was recently arrested by the ever-vigilant police, has confessed that some highly placed PDP functionaries sponsored him and other wanted criminals to kill members of the APC?
“Sunday Bisi cannot pretend not to know that Bode Itaapa who has been singing like a Canary bird in the police detention has volunteered information on how he alongside other thugs was equipped by the PDP gladiators with fake Army/Police uniforms, five Hilux vehicles and substantial amount of money to facilitate their dastardly act against the opposition members.
“Has Sunday Bisi forgotten so soon the series of threats by some of the leaders of the PDP in Ikire, Ikirun, Iwo, Osogbo, Ilesa, etc, against the APC members and our supporters before the violence-soaked and pungently rigged elections in the state?
“We are not unaware of the despicable role Sunday Bisi and other criminally-minded chieftains in the government of Osun are playing to free Bode Itaapa and other deviants facing murder, kidnapping and terrorism charges. But at the appointed time, the long hand of the law shall catch up with them and they will be forced to give full account of criminality perpetrated against our members.
“The context of the ill-thought-out statement of the confused state PDP chairman about the conjectured insecurity in the state would be useful for the police and the DSS who should wait no further to invite Sunday Bisi and help their statutory obligation on the issue at stake”, Lawal stated.
