He spent less than six months and<br \/>\nnow he is out again. The crisis Omisore caused for us is yet to be fully<br \/>\nresolved.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have decided to save our party in the state. We will support our<br \/>\nmembers who are contesting in the forthcoming election, but we have<br \/>\ndirected all authentic members of SDP to vote for Atiku and for PDP where<br \/>\nwe have no candidate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe resolved to do that because we are of the opinion that we cannot<br \/>\ncontinue like this. Killings, hungers, unemployment, nepotism and<br \/>\nsuffering in our land cannot be allowed to continue. We have painfully<br \/>\nlistened to Atiku and we feel very strongly that he will make a change.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday, Osun workers and retirees are being owed over 16 months salaries<br \/>\nand pensions. The effect of this can be seen everywhere in our state. We<br \/>\nneed to kick APC out of the state and at the national level. Voting for<br \/>\nAtiku is the best option for us since our party was unable to resolve its<br \/>\npresidential candidate\u2019s matter\u201d, he stated.<\/p>\n<p>Ishola called for peaceful polls, predicting a landslide victory for Atiku<br \/>\nin the state, adding that many people will vote for the presidential PDP<br \/>\ncandidate.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mail-message-footer spacer collapsible\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"conversation-footer\" class=\"spacer\"><\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stakeholders of Osun State Chapter of Social Democratic Party (SDP) led by the Pioneer Chairman of the party in the state, Chief Ademola Ishola have resolved to vote for the&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":64807,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-64806","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
