In a statement issued and signed by Oke’s Campaign Director General, Hon. Bola Ilori, it urged President Muhammadu Buhari to allow free and fair poll in the state.
The statement reads, “The attention of our unstoppable movement has been drawn to an undemocratic and diversionary tactics employed by the Aso Rock sparrows and presidential cabal in the South West led by Former Governor of Ekiti state, Kayode Fayemi and Ogun state governor, Ibikunle Amosun to destabilize the existing peace and communal brotherhood in Ondo state by the repeated, persistent orders they have issued to the State Security Services (SSS), Nigeria Police Force and officers of Nigeria Intelligence Agency to as from tomorrow arrest notable leaders and frontliners of the Alliance for Democracy (AD) in Ondo state including but not limited to the director general of the Olusola Oke gubernatorial campaign organization.
“The sad experience of the aftermath of 1983 governorship election in the then Ondo state brings to fore the divisive and violent tendencies been orchestrated by APC, we however issue a passionate appeal to all Nigerians to prevail on President Muhammadu Buhari to give free and fair playing ground to the citizens and residents of Ondo state to elect their governor and desist from intentions and motives capable of re-echoing the ugly phrase, “Wild wild West”
“The problems bedevilling the current administration spring from insurgency to terrorism, restiveness and militancy, kidnapping, infrastructure deficit, recession, poor educational standards and the baggage of unfulfilled electoral promises which is enough task worth the attention, commitment and concentration of any serious president who initially has vowed to change the fortunes of all Nigerians within his 4year mandate. Mr. President and his coined agents are strictly advised to conduct themselves in manners of political balance.”
