The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in Osun State has described the 8 years in office of Governor Rauf Aregbesola as the worst that the state had ever had since the return of democratic rule in 1999.
The chairman of the PDP in the state, Hon Soji Adagunodo made this claim on Sunday.
He said the governor is a legendary failure who is leaving the state worse than it was when he took over in 2010.
While berating Aregbesola for engaging in a childish self glorification in an all night programme held of Friday, Adagunodo said “the governor and his herds of clappers should understand that the people of Osun State whose lives have been made miserable by the governor’s misrule will continue to pray that there would be no repeat of the mistake that brought the APC into governance in the first instance.”
According to the PDP, “there is no better indication of the governor’s failure than the dysfunctional educational system, comatose healthcare, gargantuan debt, collapsed road and water infrastructure and several other negatives which the governor is bequeathing to his successor.”
On the claim of the governor that he built more roads than previous governors, the PDP said Aregbesola ought to be ashamed of the death traps which township roads in Ejigbo, Iwo, Ede, Ikirun, Ila Orangun, Ilobu and other cities in Osun State have become in the last eight years.
While expressing its hope in the judiciary to do justice and restore the mandate given to Senator Nurudeen Ademola Adeleke as the rightful successor to Aregbesola, the PDP urged the people of Osun State to keep on praying that the reign of the APC would soon be terminated and a new lease of prosperous life be injected into the State.
