Ahead of February 19 Governorship Primary election of the All Progressive Congress in Osun state,Governor Adegboyega Oyetola has said he remained the aspirant to beat in the contest.
Governnor Oyetola stated this shortly after appearing before the Screening Committee of the APC at the party’s National Secretariat, Abuja.
The governor boasted that his achievements since he began steering the affairs of the state in the last three years , put him ahead of other aspirants.
“Recently, I began a strategic consultation with the party members to seek their support ahead of the primary election. And the reception has been very encouraging. So far, we have visited 18 councils.
“I don’t want to talk about individuals. But I believe that I remain the aspirant to beat,” Oyetola added.
He was accompanied to the party Secretariat by party leaders,friends, supporters and loyalists, including his cabinet members.
The former Osun Secretary to State Government, SSG, Alhaji Moshood Adeoti, was also at the party secretariat for screening.
Alhaji Adeoti hails from Iwo in Iwo Local Government Area of the State.
It would be recalled that the Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdulrosheed Akanbi, had charged his subjects to vote for the incumbent Governor.
Oluwo advised his subjects not to waste their resources and energy working against the second term agendum of the governor, saying only those that are not interested in the growth and development of the town in particular and Osun State in general would want to run against Governor Oyetola.
