PRESS STATEMENT. (29TH JANUARY, 2025).
Fake Campaign Posters Bearing Oyetola’s Name, Handiwork Of Political Detractors
Osun APC Alerts Public
The Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has told the members of the public to disregard the posters of Alhaji Gboyega Oyetola, the Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, which were found pasted in some conspicuous places in Osogbo, the Osun State capital, early yesterday morning.
The printing and pasting of the posters were the handiwork of the disgruntled elements whose ulterior motive is to destabilize the party after they had tried all possible means which ended up in futility.
We knew where the promoters of the fake posters are coming from and their mission to unsettle the party and cause cataclysm which has refused to either sit or stand.
Our disappointment as the topmost opposition party in Osun State today is that the faceless promoters and leg soldiers of this obnoxious development lack tact and diplomacy as a proverbial witch roared yesterday and a child kicks the bucket the same day. Who does not know that it was the devilish witch that killed the innocent child.
The long and short of the analogy is that the state leader of the party who is the immediate-past governor of Osun State did not print any poster for any political ambition to talk less of pasting same as falsely credited to him in the said posters.
The Minister of Marine and Blue Economy did not direct any one to either print or paste any poster for him be it for socio-political or economic purpose.
The printing and pasting of the posters was the use of propaganda and stratagem by the political detractors of Alhaji Oyetola which was the manifestation of a joke taken too far in order to unjustifiably lower his repute in the estimation of the forward-looking members of our party and our numerous supporters across the nooks and crannies of Osun State.
Our joy is that the metaphorical arrow being shot by the emissaries of rift has missed its target. We should expect more of the conjectured stories from the expired politicians who are deeply pained by their forceful severance from the progressive party.
Our party is the one founded on a pedestal of the rule of law, fairness and justice which suffices that nothing under the sun could warrant us to ape the obviously drowned and confused political wanderers.
