Your Reasons For Fleeing Nigeria For Over Three Weeks Are Flimsy, Puerile, Irritating - Opposition APC Slams Adeleke

The Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has decried the plight of the state under the derelict watch of Governor Ademola Adeleke, stating that the state is exhibiting the attributes of a failed state under the Peoples Democratic Party-led administration in the state.

It is disheartening that a governor can abandon his statutory duties by sneaking out of the state for over two weeks without deeming it fit to inform the good people of the state.

That Governor Adeleke could have the brazenness to justify his unannounced absence from the state for that long not until he was smoked out and compelled to disclose his whereabouts is a corporate insult on the sensibility of the people of the state.

The reason advanced for the governor's abscondment by his spokesman that it was because of the preparation for the wedding ceremony of his nephew, David Adeleke popularly known as Davido, in the United States of America, was puerile and unthoughtful which could only ooze out from the mouth of a confused state chief executive who knows next to nothing about his expected roles as a state governor.

It is pathetic that the governor is neither worried nor bothered that his state which its National Union of Local Government Employees(NULGE) has been on a needless sympathy strike for the governor for over six months could resort to frolicking in the foreign land under the guise of preparation for his nephew's wedding ceremony.

The situation in Osun State today is more worrisome as the state is in a state of inertia as the state executive, Governor Adeleke and the Speaker of the state House of Assembly, His Right Honourable Adewale Egbedun, who threatened the life of the traditional ruler of his town, the Alashi of Ashi, last week in a viral video recording, had both sneaked out of the state at different times.

The State Secretary of the Government(SSG), Alhaji Teslim Igbalaye too is also in Dallas, Texas, United States of America for an event by the natives of Osogbo in the diaspora.

The reason given by Governor Adeleke for abandoning the state for over two weeks running that he was attending to the preparation of his nephew's wedding anniversary was horrendous, obnoxious and an insult on the sensibility of the people of Osun State.

We know Governor Adeleke to be a dancer and was not known to us before yesterday that he stated his flimsy reason for fleeing the state is that he has added an event planning job to his portfolio of the state chief executive and self-appointed state commissioner for works in which his visible impact is at its lowest ebb.

If Governor Adeleke could abscond from the country for over two weeks running because of his nephew's wedding ceremony, for how many months would he abdicate his constitutional responsibilities if it were to be B-Red, his son, that is getting married?

All the right-thinking members of the society should condemn this lackadaisical attitude of Governor Adeleke to governance, after all, he applied for the job.

The fear being entertained by the people in the state now is that there is every propensity for the governor to be spending the scarce resources of the state to bankroll his exuberant life style in the United States.

The invitation of the Osun State chapter of the APC by the governor to his time-wasting venture in the United States sequel to his exposure in this regard is laughable and an indication that Adeleke has reduced the governance of the state which ideally should be a serious business to a theatrical endeavour.

If the founding fathers and those saddled with the responsibility of running the public affairs of the United States of America have the traits of laissez-faire attitude in the public office, would they have built a great country where the governor is always finding suitable and auspicious to hibernate?

The Osun State APC is peopled by highly responsible members who have no time for frivolities but rather prioritization of how the state can be better than what it is.

History will not forget the copious negative achievements of Governor Adeleke after he might have ingloriously exited office in 2026 as the state has become a monumental irredeemable wreck under his watch.
