Following the decision of the National Working Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party to uphold the December 8 governorship primaries of its Ogun State chapter, which produced Prince Gboyega Nasir Isiaka as the party’s standard flag bearer, one of the aspirants that boycotted the primaries, Hon. Isiaq Abiodun Akinlade, has declared his unalloyed commitment and support to the party’s decision.
Akinlade said: “The party and her organogram’s decision are supreme’
In a statement personally signed by the Chairman House of Representatives’ Committee on Science and Technology, titled: “Time to set forth,” Akinlade expressed gratitude to his teeming followers, traditional rulers, community leaders, religious leaders, the youths, the media, labour leaders, trade unions, civil society organizations, artisans and NGOs for their special interest and show of affection during his statewide campaign.
He said: “I appreciate the firm support and commitment of all and sundry towards the realization of our collective goal, (Ogun Governorship Seat). Yes, we actually prepared to give Ogun People a new face of governance that they will all cherish through our NEW PACT, but Man Proposes God disposes. However, irrespective of the outcome of our party disposition which has seen my compatriot and brother in struggle for the emancipation of our people; Prince Gboyega Nasiru Isiaka getting the nod of the party to fly her flag in the 2015 governorship election, as a loyal party member who believes in her supremacy, we must not waiver neither should we despair because we had all given our very best of effort to the Agenda, but God knows best.
“The party and her organogram’s decision is supreme, PDP is greater than any individual including my humble self, hence we must all work together to bring the elusive seat to our people and be united in this course for once.
“Ultimately, as we stand on the threshold of history, I remain committed to the yearning and aspirations of our people by joining hand with my brother Prince Gboyega Nasir Isiaka to provide the needed leadership and understanding towards the socio-economic and political emancipation of our people.”
The three term member of the House of Representatives also used the opportunity to express gratitude to the leadership of his party for deeming him fit for the responsibility of returning to the National Assembly again to represent the people of Yewa South/Ipokia Federal Constituency.
He said: “Our party in her wisdom has thereby entrusted another responsibility on me to contest for the House Representatives of my constituency in Yewa South/Ipokia for the fourth time. Though I didn’t bargain for this from the outset, but I’m humbled by this gesture once again and I thank all those who made this possible.”
Akinlade urge all the people of Ogun State across the length and breadth of the state to vote for the PDP in all the various elective positions in the forthcoming elections.
He said: “Let’s vote en mass for the PDP in the forthcoming general election so as to take our state and country to a greater height. I ‘BELIEVE’ Ogun people deserve a better government than we are presently getting.”
