Tirade against Oyetola on Party Repositioning Shows Desperation, Hopelessness, Says Osun APC
Yinka Kolawole in Osogbo
The Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has lambasted the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state over its use of extreme expressions on the immediate-past state Governor, Gboyega Oyetola, over the party’s reposition committee that was inaugurated in Osogbo, the state capital, last Monday.
According to the state acting Chairman of the APC, Sooko Tajudeen Lawal, in a statement issued by the party’s Director of Media and Information, Chief Kola Olabisi, in Osogbo yesterday, “Since it is globally axiomatic that a gentleman is a fool during the period of a crisis, this response is to justify the fact that no one has a monopoly of violence be it oral or physical.
“Having read through the make-believe from the stable of the PDP, we make bold to state that the jeremiad was a product woven together by proxy originated by an enemy within who is not comfortable with the repositioning process of the APC and given to own by a moronic party leader who only appended his signature.
“It won’t be an overstatement to classify the offensive and ill-mannered PDP statement against former Governor Oyetola with a biblical expression that ‘the hand is that of Esau while the voice is that of Jacob’.
“It’s also apposite to impress it in the subconscious of the hidden author and his allies that the All-knowing and perfect God in His wisdom created human beings with different forms of characters by delineating unrepentant from those who perpetually belong to the streets and the absolutely gentle ones.
“If not for an ulterior motive, how does the schism in house ‘A’ become the business of house ‘B’? What has the repositioning effort in the APC got to do with the PDP if not that the latter is acting the roles of a meddlesome interloper?
“Why is it that the Osun State PDP leadership and its allies are always afraid of the physical sight and shadow of Governor Oyetola who performed optimally and meritoriously during his four-year tenure in the state?
“Why is it that whenever Oyetola speaks, the PDP camp and its nocturnal political allies instantly catch cold, become rattled, jittery and uncomfortable?”
Lawal said: “The reason is not far-fetched as a notorious armed robber can never wish his victim well, and experience has shown that conscience is always the repelling reason for a thief to always avoid the sight of the owner of a stolen item.
“While it is viewed as an act of stupidity for a decent man to roll along with a pig in its natural habitat of a swamp, it is worthwhile to be grateful to God Almighty that our candidate, Oyetola, who is an embodiment of what any rational parents desire for their offspring, is neither a knucklehead nor a perpetual satellite human at 60 plus.”
