Senator Solomon Adeola, the senator representing Ogun West Senatorial District has stated that there is no competition or any rivalry between him and the governor of the state, Prince Dapo Abiodun over issues of party politics and governance of the state as they are on the same page for the development of Ogun State.
Senator Adeola, who was reacting swiftly to a speculative story published by an online medium, SocietyNow.ng titled “ Dapo Abiodun, Adeola Yayi Battle for Support of Ogun APC Members” said that the governor is the leader of the party in Ogun State and there is no way he will disagree with his leader, mentor, and role model on issues of the party’s administration or do anything to divide the party.
“There is no truth whatsoever in the story as the Governor is my leader and mentor in the party as well as my governor. As a loyal member of APC, there is no way I will be in any battle with my leader and governor on party issues or indeed governance issues as the governor is faithfully implementing policies and programs of the party in his administration of the state” he stated.
The chairman of the Senate Committee on Appropriations stated that the governor has performed very well in all sectors of Ogun State so far stressing that the target is to continue to support the governor to maintain and increase the tempo of his development strides in Ogun State.
Senator Adeola said that presently he is working towards fulfilling his promises to his constituents as well as complementing the good works of the governor stressing that the issue of governorship of Ogun State in 2027 is a matter to be addressed by the leaders of the party in Ogun State and other relevant stakeholders at the appropriate time.
“No one should distract us from implementing policies of the party for the people at all levels with contrived and speculative issues of phantom competition. We are working to ameliorate the dire economic circumstances facing the people and this is not the time for party politics but governance. I will continue my steadfast support for the governor and those behind this divisive kind of stories are warned to turn a new leaf. The governor remains my leader and mentor in Ogun State” Senator Adeola stated.
