The Osun State Chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has dissociated itself from the crisis rocking the market women association in the State.
In a statement signed by Akindele Adekunle, the Osun PDP caretaker chairman on Sunday, the party accused the opposition of raising false alarm and launching unnecessary attacks against the State government.“Worried by the increasing unpopularity of its presidential candidate and the soaring acceptability of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, the APC is holding unto straws, pushing to tag union power tussle as an action from the State government.
“Osun people voted massively for Governor Adeleke on July 16th 2022 and they will do the same for Alhaji Abubakar and all PDP candidates from February 25. The Governor has strengthened the confidence reposed in him by the people of Osun State,” he stated. The APC in a statement signed by its Acting Chairman, Tajudeen Lawal on Sunday, while describing the alleged government’s action as vindictive, wicked and inconsiderate, disclosed that the vehicles were withdrawn from the women market leaders through some ‘hard men’ who were accompanied by some battle-ready police officers in a Gestapo-like manner.
