Osun Governor Incompetent - APC National Secretary, Basiru Speaks
Senator Ajibola Basiru, the National Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, has urged party members to put aside their disagreements, work to make the party stronger, and remove Ademola Adeleke, the state's incumbent governor, from office in 2026.
Ajibola Basiru, who spoke in Osogbo on Saturday at a reception organized for him by the APC leadership of Osogbo Federal Constituency, also declared the current administration in the state as incompetent.
The ex-Senate spokesperson, who was flanked by the APC state chairmen from the South-West region, as well as party bigwigs from all parts of the state, said people that installed the current administration in the state were already regretting their actions.
He charged party members not to cause internal disruption, but work very hard to reposition it for better outing in the next round of elections.
He said, “Less than a year after, those that wanted to destroy the good fortune of our state are already lamenting. Those that they put in government in the state don’t know how to govern. They are appointing SSA, Government House Pool; SSA Oranmiyan Newtown; SSA, children; SSA swimming pool and so on. They must be sacked from government.
“When we sack him (Adeleke) in 2026, he will go for three days diploma as usual to learn about NGO after he failed to sack Iyaloja General. The APC is an organised party. Let’s show more commitment.”
Speaking to the group in Yoruba, Basiru, who was explaining the issues surrounding subsidy removal, said that since the Federal Government stopped the subsidy regime two months ago, about N2 trillion had been saved.
