In a press statement issued in Abeokuta, and signed by its Publicity Secretary, Tunde Oladunjoye, the party said the chicken has come home to roost for Adeleke.

The State Governor, Adegboyega Oyetola while inaugurating the group in Osogbo, the state capital assured that some would be given chance when Tinubu becomes the President.
The allegation is contained in a press statement e-signed by Olawale Rasheed on behalf of the Committee.
Oyetola in his condolence message by his Chief Press Secretary, Ismail Omipidan, on Thursday in Osogbo, prayed God to comfort the governor and the entire family on the loss of their matriarch.
Announcing the results at the INEC Collation Centre Sunday in Osogbo, Prof. Oluwatoyin Ogundipe, who was the returning officer, said that Adeleke polled 403,371 votes to defeat his closet rival, Governor Gboyega Oyetola, the candidate of the ruling APC, who scored 375,027 votes.
Official ward results showed that the All Progressives Congress and the Peoples Democratic Party are in a tight race.
Taking Osun APC as a case study, even a fool in the party would know that the outcomes of the polls did not satisfy everybody.
We were told that, in every contest, a candidate from a pool of aspirants would always emerge; and that, ‘while those who win end up thanking their stars’, losers would always go back home, most likely looking forward to fighting another day. Well, these contextual explanations become necessary, especially, when one takes into consideration the experiences of the last primary elections of the ruling – All Progressives Congress – (APC) across the country. Osun State is no exception.
Governor Oyetola spoke in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Ismail Omipidan, on Wednesday.
Reacting to comments purportedly made at the weekend by Senator Adeleke, the group described the statement as absurd and unacceptable.
The party stated in a statement that the cries of the state retirees over non payment of their entitlements was worrisome.
According to Olatunbosun Oyintiloye, pioneer Head of the Centre, the website was designed to “serve as a feedback mechanism between the government and the people in the areas of the measure of development as well as ascertain the functional value of government policies and programmes.”
According to Olatunbosun Oyintiloye, pioneer Head of the Centre, the website was designed to “serve as a feedback mechanism between the government and the people in the areas of the measure of development as well as ascertain the functional value of government policies and programmes.” Oyintiloye, who also doubles as Special Adviser to Governor Gboyega Oyetola on Civic Engagement, stated that _“both residents and non-residents would also have the opportunity to express their opinion about government programmes”_ and how those programmes _“affect them, using the platform as a credible conveyor.”_
Oyetola said this during an engagement programme with the All Farmers Association of Nigeria (AFAN) in Odo-Otin Local Government Area (LGA) of the state on Sunday.

The Osun APC Governorship Primary, won by the incumbent Governor Gboyega Oyetola, has come and gone; a winner has emerged and losers have also started licking their wounds. So, the rest, as it is often said, is history.
Oyetola won by 309 votes against 146 recorded for Moshood Adeoti, the candidate supported by Aregbesola.
Announcing the result of the direct primary at St. Peters Primary School, ward 001, Iragbiji, Samson Oyebade, the electoral officer, said Oyetola scored 1,612 votes, to beat two other aspirants, Alhaji Moshood Adeoti, and Lasun Yusuf, who scored no vote.
They gave the reasons in a rejoinder to an article titled, ‘Open letter to Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu: The Osun calabash must not be broken”, written by one Akanni Omo Oba.
In other climes, untoward attitudes like the one on hand are enough to shred a government into tatters, especially, when such avoidable feuds are coming from the same political family and political party. That Oyetola is not losing his central balance but remains focused in the discharge of the business of governance as constitutionally demanded of him is therefore noteworthy.
