The Oyo State Governor, Abiola Ajimobi,
has vowed that peace will not be
compromised by any group or persons
in the state.
The governor made the promise while
reacting to the alleged threat by former
Governor Rashidi Ladoja of the Accord
Party that there would be reprisal attacks,
if members of the All Progressive
Congress (APC) continued to harass his
people.
Governor Ajimobi added that the victory
won by the APC was more than
convincing, as the people voted
overwhelmingly for him.
Former Governor Ladoja had said he was
gathering evidence to enable him come
back to the Government House in the next
three months through the tribunal.
Ajimobi further stressed that any
candidate who feels that the will of the
people should be contested, must do so
within the ambit of the law. He said any
breach of peace would not be tolerated
from anyone in the state, no matter how
highly placed.
In his address to Accord Party (AP)
supporters, former Governor Ladoja had
warned that if the governor does not
warn his supporters from harassing his
people, there would be reprisal attacks. He
claimed that the elections results do not
represent the will of the people.
Meanwhile, the Oyo State Police
Commissioner, Mohammed Katsina, said
no group or individual would be allowed
to take the law into their hands, advising
any aggrieved candidate to seek legal
redress.
Other governorship candidates, who
contested with Governor Ajimobi have
expressed readiness to work with him, in
order to move the state forward.
