The Coalition of Oodua Self Determination Group, COSEG, has commended Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun State for the payment of part of the salaries of workers of the state government.
The group, in a statement on Thursday, urged the governor not to be distracted by the antics of the opposition who it said are bent on derailing his vision for the good people of the state.
In a statement signed by the Chairman and Secretary of it’s coordinating council, Comrades Dayo Ogunlana and Rasaq Olokoba, the group stated that the governor as a worthy Yoruba son whose achievement in the state is unprecedented, he must be encouraged to deliver more.
It said that the leadership of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in the state should be ashamed of their failure in the last gubernatorial election in the state, as Aregbesola thrashed the party and equally floored them at the tribunal which it said is responsible for the sustained campaign of calumny against the governor.
According to COSEG” We must commend the governor of the state of Osun, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola for the recent payment of part of the salaries of workers in the state. We have known him to be a promise keeper, sincere politician and a devout Muslim.
“His achievement in the state since assumption of office in 2010 speaks volume, from the free meal for students, massive road reconstruction across the state, infrastructural development and above all adequate security in the state.”
It is important to note that the state is not the only one owing workers, but agents of the past government habeas singled out Ogbeni for condemnation, while states being ruled by their defeated party still owe the workers, yet, they a’re quiet”
The group also berated a judge of the Osun state high court, Justice Folahanmi Oloyede for asking for the impeachment of the governor, describing such as a statement from a “confused mind.”
It maintained that the judge from her statement has demonstrated partisanship in the matter as she is already biased and will not engage in thorough analysis of the matter if taken to her for ruling.
“The judge had shown that she is speaking for the PDP as her call for the Governor’s impeachment has shown her partisanship in this matter and most of the words utter by the PDP tallies with her submission.
“It is on this note, that we advise justice Oloyede to resign from the noble bench and join her colleagues in the opposition as her judgements furthermore, will not be taken seriously.,” the group concluded.
