…. Tasks Police, DSS, Civil Defence To Be On Standby
The All Progressives Congress, APC, Osun State chapter has urged reinstated Council Chairmen in the State to discard what it described fake news for the chairmen not to resume work tomorrow, Monday 24th February, 2025.
APC’s Director of Media and Information in the State, Mogaji Kola Olabisi made the statement in a press release made available to newsmen on Sunday.
Our attention has been brought to a fake news on the social media orchestrated by a supposed democratic state government stating that the leadership of the APC in Osun State has purportedly directed their elected local government chairmen and councillors not to resume in their various local government council areas tomorrow.
We want to inform the authentic Court of Appeal-reinstated local government council chairmen and councillors that no such information came from the esteemed leadership of our party.
It is the handiwork of the reactionary elements who thought they could realize their inordinate political ambition through the dissemination of fake story to confuse our focused elected council bosses and chiefs.
We want to make it abundantly clear that it is imperative for the elected APC local government chairmen and councillors not to cease from resumption at their various local government council areas in order to continue to serve the deprived people at the grassroots level of government.
The APC is a party founded on the rules of law which is the reason the Court of Appeal judgement given at the Akure Division, Akure, Ondo State, on the 10th of February, 2025, is the basic instrument of your reinstatement.
We are not unaware of the fact that some disgruntled elements who are emboldened by the lawless government of the day in Osun State are planning to invade the local government council areas across the state.
We would like to enjoin the state Commissioner of Police, the State Director of the DSS and the State Comptroller of the Civil Defence to be on watch out with a view to keeping peace in all the local government council areas in the state.
It is also important to appeal to the parents and guardians across the state to warn their children and wards to desist from being recruited as political thugs by disgruntled and failed politicians who are hell-bent in disturbing the peace of the state.
We are reinstating our statement again that there are no vacancies for elected offices at the local government council level in all the local government council areas in Osun State.
A word is enough for the wise while those who are destined to get lost would not hearken to the whistling of a hunter like that of a proverbial dog.
