A third term bid of the Senator representing Osun Central Senatorial District, Professor Sola Adeyeye, has suffered a setback as youth in the district declared support for the Commissioner for Justice and Attorney-General in the state, Dr Surajudeen Ajibola Basiru for the Senate seat.
The youth under the aegis of Osun Central Progressive Front while addressing a press conference in Osogbo, said Adeyeye performed well in the two terms he has spent in the senate but they insisted that he should pave way for Ajibola Basiru, popular known as SRJ to be their next senator.
The convener of the group, Comrade Ebby Olusegun Ige who spoke on behalf of all members said Ajibola Basiru who is the current Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice in Osun State has the capacity and capability to represent Osun central at the upper chamber of the National Assembly.
According to a statement jointly signed by Ebby Olusegun Ige and the General Secretary of the group, Comrade Badru Asimiyu Olawale, the Osun Central Progressive Youth Front said having reviewed the current situation, they discovered that there is urgent need for effective legislation as a critical tool to enhance development and ensure the sustenance and stability of nation’s democracy.
The group said the Osun central deserves the best and that they cannot afford to take chances with key decisions relating to their future.
