ABEOKUTA—
Labour Party, LP, in Ogun State, has faulted the claim by Governor Ibikunle Amosun that his administration has attracted $7.3 billion since he assumed office three years ago.
The party in a statement by its state Publicity Secretary, Deji Kalejaiye, said it read with dismay the statement credited to the governor on the pages of national dailies that Amosun’s administration had attracted investments worth $7.3 billion in three years.
Urging the governor to “stop embarrassing the people of Ogun State,” the party said “we need to state, without any fear of contradiction, that there cannot be anything farther from the truth in this statement. It is an embarrassment to the good people of Ogun State that its chief executive officer will be caught in the web of lies and deception which has now assumed a second nature to the state governor and his retinue of cabinet members.”
Meanwhile, a governorship aspirant of the party (LP), in Ogun State, Prince Gboyega Isiaka has said the party is ready to take over from the ruling All Progressive Congress, APC, next year.
Isiaka hinged his optimism on what he called, “total rejection of APC in Ogun State because of abysmal performance of Governor Ibikunle Amosun”.
Following the opening of LP secretariat in Abeokuta, Isiaka said LP had clearly made a statement as the party to beat and hinted that a large number of people everyday joined the party to rescue Ogun State from bad government.
