“So Makinde cannot have as much votes he had during the last elections, because PDP in the state now is carcass of its own, they have series of problems within them, their grassroot mobilizers are no longer with them, people like Alhaji Adebisi Olopoeyan, Hon. Milikat Adeola, even those that are in the party are not there because of Seyi Makinde, Barrister Gbolarunmi have his own loyalist and they are for Atiku and not Seyi, so Makinde cannot have up to 100,000 votes this time around. People are already tired of his government.”
“With Accord Party we are going to snatch governance from the current governor, Accord Party is fielding the youngest candidates that are new set of people with good character, tested and trusted people, people that have names to protect, young achievers that comes from well known homes that will be representing their people in various political positions after the general elections.”
“I’m not contesting to make money neither I’m in the race to make a name, have already made my money, and the name Adelabu is already out there, even before I was born, I have benefitted so much from the name, media and the good people in the state should compare and contrast between me and other contenders in the race, I’m in the race to take over Oyo state and turn it around for better.
“Our quest is for better Oyo state and I urge the media to be part of this because media plays a vital roles in achieving a good governance.”
“Makinde’s performance in the last three and half years is not the best for us as pacesetter state, and that is why I have decided to run for the office of the governor in 2023 because Makinde’s performance is nothing to write home about, it is very clear that people have realized that Makinde is not the best for the state.”
“Another four years under Seyi Makinde led administration would be disastrous and anti-development, that is why we came out together again under Accord Party to rescue our dear state. Adelabu said.
