The campaign organisation of the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Ogun State, Prince Gboyega Nasir Isiaka, has decried the removal of campaign posters of Isiaka on major streets of the state capaital, Abeokuta, allegedly by supporters of the state governor, Ibikunle Amosun.
This call was contained in a press statement issued on Sunday by the campaign group, The Gboyega Nasir Isiaka Campaign Organisation, GNICO, and signed by its Director of Media and Publicity, Comrade Ifekayode Akinbode.
GNICO wondered why agents of Amosun would stoop so low to carry out such act.
The Organisation, however, noted that no amount of removal of Isiaka’s posters will change the mind of thousands of Ogun resident, who he said are determined to vote out Amosun in the February 28 gubernatorial election in the state.
“Amosun and his agents have every reason to be afraid of the growing acceptability of the PDP governorship candidate in the state, but removing his posters will not change the heart of many parents who see their children sitting down at home while their counterparts in private schools are enjoying uninterrupted academic session,” the statement said.
“Removing Isiaka’s posters will not make teachers and civil servants vote for a government that has continued to dehumanize them, just as Isiaka’s posters have nothing to do with a government that has been rejected for subjecting the state into unnecessary debt running into over N250billion,” it added.
GNICO, however, appealed to its teeming supporters throughout the state not to retaliate, but report them to the police for necessary action.
