The APC flag bearer, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, has flayed his PDP rival of campaigning on a platform of lies and challenged him to project what he would differently from the incumbent.
Aregbesola, through a statement by his media aide, Semiu Okanlawon, said that it was remarkable that Omisore was bent on dissipating energy on personalities and discrediting his administration instead of stating what he would do himself as governor.
“We acknowledge his capacity for lies, fraudulent claims, innuendoes and fallacies.
We however note that these are only the last resort for a candidate who knows the degree of the rejection he has suffered from the good people of Osun,” Aregbesola was quoted as saying.
“Omisore must take the Osun people for being daft to believe they will embrace his lies. In recent times, he has woven a litany of lies around all the projects of the Aregbesola administration such as Opon Imo, roads contracts, school reforms, financial engineering, youths empowerment schemes, environmental development projects and others. “But what Omisore appears to forget is the fact that the people are at the centre of these programmes and therefore they are the direct beneficiaries.
Any attempt to discredit them easily fails,” the statement said.
“He has sought desperately to set workers against the government. The Osun workers who have witnessed the massive changes in the conditions of service since the Aregbesola administration came would even in the face of the confusion attempted by him, still take the best electoral decision of re-electing Aregbesola for a second term.
