Drama As Omisore Caves In To Pressure, Agreed To Work For APC In Osun Rerun
Osun, Nigeria News 26th September, 2018: The governorship candidate of the Social Democratic Party, Senator Iyiola Omisore, has agreed to work for the ruling All Progressives Congress in tomorrow’s rerun election in Osun State.
He said this while addressing journalists at his residence in Ile Ife on Wednesday.
He said, “We have accepted to support the APC for victory in the rerun election tomorrow and thereafter form a coalition government.”
Earlier on, Omisore has rejected offers to work for either the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) or the All Progressives Congress (APC), adding that what is paramount to him is the practice of true democracy in Osun State.
Omisore had earlier firmly stated that he will never renege on his promise of good governance, accountability and human dignity in Osun state.
He had made the remarks in a statement released on Wednesday, which he said “Osun state has always been a stellar example of democracy where the people have consistently and freely expressed their franchise to determine who governs them. This should remain so. Osun people have shown that it is not business as usual. It is a positive deviation from what was hitherto the norm.
I am telling my people that they should go with any political party that believes in what we in the SDP stand for; good governance, social justice and accountability. I have already detailed how we planned to restore Osun to the path of good governance through the five thematic pillars in the manifesto I shared during the electioneering. I will not negotiate for personal gains and abandon my people.
