Nigerians Blast Amosun for the ‘Imported’ Candidate Remark
…Say Gbenga Daniel, Amosun and his Deputy Governor imported
Ogun State Governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, on Tuesday like his Oyo State Counterpart who declared that he will soon name his successor, declared his intention to support and actively campaign for a Governorship candidate from the Ogun West Senatorial District as his successor in 2019. However, he got his fans and friends on social media when he warned against ‘Imported’ Candidates.
A statement that was allegedly referring to Senator Solomon Olamilekan Adeola, popularly known as Yayi, a Senator currently representing Lagos West at the Senate who hails from Yewa of Ogun West Senatorial District and believed to be perfecting all plans to contest in the Ogun 2019 governorship race.
The Senator who has never hide his ambition and has garnered the support of some groups and individuals and his supporter would not be shocked by the statement of the Governor which is one of the series of hostility towards Yayi according to one of them.
Osinowo Ibrahim was quick to remind the governor that his Deputy by that definition is also an ‘Imported’ Candidate. The governor is a joker and deceptive human being… He picked his deputy from Lagos civil servant, sponsored OGD (Otunba Gbenga Daniel) from the same imported city, he was protected by the same Lagos when OGD almost killed him…. He should mention anyone he has empowered his present appointees or previous once like me…. He should just wait for the time.
“Even Amosun and Daniel are imported candidates in 2003 in Ogun state while Amosun wants to put his own candidate to covered all mis-application of Ogun state money used by his government, i know EFCC is watching with keen interest” Bakare Numero-Uno Simeon said.
Lucky Pee maintains that it is rather too early to start discussing 2019 while they are yet to deliver on the current mandate. “
“I think is too early to start campaign for anyone now when the Governor is busy doing the rightful things for his people, I mean serving them diligently as ever, but when the time comes he will surely direct us who to work with, because we all want a good continuity like him and his team, and I believe he and his team will definitely want someone that can take the state to another great level like themselves.” he said.
