Alleged Money Laundering:

Cyril Fasuyi's Camp unsettled Over EFCC  Invitation.

...It is totally false story spread  by Political neophytes because of elections-  Fasuyi 

The alleged money laundering involving the APC gubernatorial candidate's campaign director general,  Chief Cyril Fasuyi has begun to raise uneasiness in the camp of the  Senatorial hopeful.

A report filtered in this morning that the APC Chieftain was reportedly invited to the office of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission in Abuja on issues involving money laundering.

The news reportedly threw spanners in the camp of the Senatorial aspirant on the platform of the All Progressives Congress  who also doubles as the Campaign Director general of the APC gubernatorial candidate in the forthcoming June 18th election in Ekiti State.

 

The camp of Chief Fasuyi and his  teeming fans were said to have been disturbed by the allegations.

But in a swift reaction, the APC gubernatorial director general who is also seeking to win the Ekiti  North Senatorial sole ticket in the Friday primaries declared that the information is false and has no iota of truth. 

In a direct message to this Correspondent,  Chief Fasuyi said:

"Everything about the report is false. It has been a recurring report since 4 years and its coming up again because we are in electioneering period. Thank you for your concern".

He also described those peddling the story as political neophyte who enjoys tarnishing his image because of the election tension in the State.

.....Osun Matters Arising's Investigate.

National Assembly 2023 Ifelodun, Boripe and Odo-otin decides

One of the party Chairmen in Ifelodun, Boripe and Odo-otin Federal Constituency who doesn't want his name to be mentioned said, the way Hon. Rasheed Afolabi is treating the party members  which we all suffered for as if  we are in the opposition.  During the investigation of Osun Matters Arisings to Ifelodun, Boripe and Odo-otin.

The incumbent Member of House of Representatives Hon. Rasheed Afolabi, who obtained his Representatives form didn't carry all the Chairmen in (IBO) Federal Constituency along. And nobody knows who and where Rasheed signed his nomination form.

The Chairman said, If the party gives the ticket of House of Representatives to him, surely the Party will loose the seat to opposition. 

He said, "if the leaders of the Party want the seat to remain in Ifelodun, the party should look for another more credible and acceptable candidate from Ifelodun to complete the Rasheed Afolabi's tenure.
"He added, that there wouldn't be any gain for the party to lose the sit of Ifelodun, Boripe and Odo-otin Federal Constituency to opposition".

OsunDecides2023: It's right time for Odo-Otin LGA

Odo-Otin, Will Provide Better Candidate, Says Prince Hon. George Durosinmi.

Hon. Prince George Durosimi

The widely respected Leader in the APC in Osun State and  Odo-otin, Prince Hon. George Durosimi while being interviewed by press men in his Country home Faji, said that Odo -Otin is ready to produced the best candidate which is going to represent the Ifelodun, Boripe and Odo-Otin federal Constituency in the forthcoming election in the House of Representatives Abuja. He said among the contestants who are inspired for the ticket of House of Representatives   of all the APC aspirants in Odo-Otin, Hon. Engr. Victor Olayinka Oladunni is  the best to carry APC flag.

Hon. George Durosimi said it will be very risky and dangerous for the party to present rejected candidate even from his own Local Government.

He said, "In our federal Constituency we need acceptable candidate who can face the opposition and  win the election for us". 

Hon. George Durosinmi said a born Engr. and politicians Victor Oladunni has what it takes to contest and win the election.

"In terms of Courage, strength, Vission and capacity, he is a vibrant youth which he can deliver".

I am very sure about the Second term of Mr Governor. Hon. George said. When the press men, asked about the re-election of Governor Oyetola, Hon. Geoge said the performance of Alh. Gboyega Oyetola is already speaking for him. Gov. Gboyega Oyetola reform and Strategic intervention in the public service have been intrumental to the gains that the state had recorded in terms of overall citizens welfare and improvement of standard of living of the citizens of Osun State.

Since assumption of  office, Governor Gboyega Oyetola commenced the prompt payment of full Salaries and pension as opposed to the half salary payment by the previous Administration. 

So second term of Governor Gboyega Oyetola is very sacrosanct.

Ekiti 2022 Guber Election

I can Vouch for Oyebanji's Pedigree and Competence- Sen Opeyemi Bamidele

The Senator Representing Ekiti Central Senatorial District at the National Assembly, Senator Opeyemi Bamidele has said loyalty to All Progressives Congress (APC) and his confidence in the ability and capacity of Mr. Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji (BAO) to provide responsible governance were the reasons he didn't challenge Oyebanji's victory in the January 27 primary election.

Speaking in Ado Ekiti on Friday as a Guest of Honour at an event organised by BAO's Anchor Organization to drum support for the APC guber candidate.

In his address at the event,  MOB said even though he contested in the primary, he had to embrace reconciliation as a loyal party member and work in the interest of the party the moment the winner had emerged. 

Going down memory lane, Senator Bamidele reminded the crowd of favours the party had done him in the past, especially his emergence as Senatorial candidate in 2019 and the consensus agreement that has favoured him again to fly the party’s flag for the Ekiti Central Senatorial seat in 2023.

 

"I'm excited today because our party is waxing stronger  everyday. I'm here not only as Senatorial candidate but as a loyal party man who also believe in the competence and capacity of Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji to provide good governance in Ekiti State. 

"Of course after the primary in January, many people thought we would challenge it in court but I knew that was not the way to go. I told my supporters that it's a family affair that must be treated within the family. I thank my brother, Governor John Kayode Fayemi, I thank the first lady and other leaders for the roles they played in making sure the family ties remain intact,"

Speaking on the preparation of the party to win the June 18 election, Bamidele commended the various groups for their selfless sacrifice which made  the event possible.  

He said, "Today is memorable in the history of our great party and the state because what is happening is a demonstration of the fact that politics has indeed gone back to the people. I'm particularly excited because people have realized the need for participatory politics. I want to implore our people to move out and  preach the gospel according to BAO for us to be victorious on June 18. 

Ekiti State First Lady, Erelu Bisi  Fayemi who spoke on the need for continuity at the event saluted all the support groups as well as the  Women Campaign Council for their efforts towards BAO's victory in the coming governorship election. 

She pointed out that continuity would lead to the retention of various laudable achievements of the outgoing administration.

"You will all agree with me that Ekiti is not developing at the pace other developed states are developing. The reason is simple; there is no consistency in administrations as we see in Lagos and many other other states," 

Speaking at the event, the Chairman of BAO Anchor Organization, Hon. Gbenga Agbeyo said the Anchor groups were committed to ensuring that  total victory was record for the APC governorship candidate come June 18. 

Also speaking at the event, a former APC State Chairman, Chief Jide Awe also admitted that there hasn't been anytime members of the public showed commitment to who governs them in Ekiti as being witnessed now. 

Awe called on APC leaders and members not to relent in their efforts at recording a landslide victory in the coming election.

The APC governorship candidate, Mr Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji in his response thanked members of the BAO Anchor Organization for their support and promised to fulfil all his promises to Ekiti people if emerged as governor come June 18.

"I stand before you today that I will not disappoint you. That I will fulfil all my promises," he stated.

The governorship candidate, who restated his committment to issue- based campaign, called on party members to refrain from any act of violence  during the electioneering period. He said the record of performance of the APC- led administration in the state and the massive support of the people were enough to earn the party victory at the June 18 election.
