Omisore accepts open debate with Aregbesola

The governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in Osun State, Senator Iyiola Omisore, has accepted the challenge to an open debate with the incumbent, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola.
The acceptance was contained in a statement on Tuesday by Diran Odeyemi, Omisore’s Director of Media Affairs.
Aregbesola, the candidate of the All Progressives Congress in the August 9 election, had thrown the challenge at the inauguration of Ayegbaju International Market on Tuesday in Osogbo.
However, the statement said the governor must ensure that security prevailed for the debate to take place.
It said: “Assurance of safety, among other things, would make Omisore to attend the debate.
“When an argument is being made between two different parties for instance, it may result in physical assault and harassment.
“The senator is a complete gentleman and a holder of PhD.
“So, we need an assurance that there will be no physical assault on him.”
