Osun 2022: Obi Rally Support For Lasun Yussuff
Ahead Osun State governorship election slated for July 16, the presidential candidate of Labour Party Mr. Peter Obi has charged Osun electorate to vote massively for Hon.Lasun Yussuff in the election for productivity and dividends of democracy.
Addressing party supporters in Osogbo on Wednesday at a rally, where he handed over the party’s flag to their candidate, Obi described him as a thoroughly bred politician with intimidating credential that would deliver on the aspirations of the people of the state.
He lamented what he described as the precarious situation Nigerians have been subjected to by the dominant political parties in Nigeria adding that it was the right time for Nigerians to set themselves free and vote for a better alternative that can be found in LP.
Obi expressed the need for Nigerians to be shown love and compassion which he said the dominant parties lacked as manifested in the way they treat the youths, the workers and the entire citizens of Nigeria.
On vote buying, Obi told Osun electorate to take any money offered them but vote for their choices candidates adding that the money offered were stolen from government covers and therefore belong to them.
Also speaking, the candidate of the party, Hon. Lasun Yussuff said he is better equipped to govern Osun State because he has what it takes to govern successfully having served as deputy Speaker House of Representatives.
He attributed his choice of Labour Party to his belief in the dignity of labour that liberates from shackles of lack and poverty as an investor.
Apparently referring to the statement credited to the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu during the party’s mega rally where he allegedly taunt labour, Yussuff said such statement is unbecoming of someone who want to become the president of Nigeria.
