Olunloyo, A Failed Politician – ACPP

Former Oyo State governor, Dr. Victor Omololu Olunloyo has been asked to find his political relevance first in his native Oyo State before joining his voice to the crude politics, being played by Governor Olagunsoye Oyinlola’s Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)-led administration in Osun State, the Alliance of Collaborating Political Parties, (ACPP) has said.
It would be recalled that the former Oyo State chief executive, while speaking at a book launch, written by the Chief Press Secretary, (CPS) to Oyinlola on Thursday, in Osogbo took on the former Lagos State governor, Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu, saying that he (Tinubu) was pursuing an expansionist agenda in the South-West politics.
Reacting, the platform of the opposition political parties, ACPP led by Alhaji Sule Alao said that Olunloyo, by virtue of his rough political antecedents in the old Oyo State was the right person to grace such an occasion, but the most unqualified to speak on the progressive politics of Tinubu.
“We were not surprised that the man with rebellious political history was invited by Oyinlola’s megaphone, Mr. Lasisi Olagunju, while launching his tissue of lies called Dissonance Harmonies, but it was an insult that a core conservative stooge, who was stage-managed as a three-month governor in the old Oyo State could be speaking on progressive politics of Tinubu, a paragon of achievements”, said the ACPP leader.
Alao in a telephone conversations with OSUN DEFENDER, further took Olunloyo to the cleaner, asking him to explain why his party chose to operate two leprous wings in Oyo State, and his contributions to the development of his people as a former governor, and as a politicians; saying that he could only speak on Tinubu, if he offered why he was better than him.
According to Alao, “Tinubu has proved himself to be a reliable leader to his state, his followers, his party and his race in all ramifications; he was an achiever as governor, he is a leader, as a politician, and an envy of his detractors. If someone like Olunloyo who has no political pedigree could come to Osogbo and cast aspersion on Tinubu, with a view to impressing his host, he has missed the point”.
Descending on Osun and Ekiti state governors who castigated Tinubu for his progressive role in the South-West, Alao argued that the duo are products of Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) rigging machine, noting that the two embattled governors lack honour to talk about the former Lagos State helmsman, for they (PDP governors) have nothing to show for their rigged elections.
“Is it not laughable that Segun Oni who was rigged into the Ekiti State Government House is now moving around condemning a man who ruled his state with credibility? The same Oni who has succeeded in putting his state in the world map for the wrong reason of his fraudulent election in the just-concluded re-run governorship election in Ekiti is still fresh in our mind”, Alao recalled.
He described Oyinlola as a political leper in Osun State, saying that only conscienceless politicians and political contractors like Oni and Olunloyo could be his guests, for they have something in common.
“We, in ACPP have, realized that Oyinlola has a good reason to keep company of Oni and Olunloyo, for both men rose to power via rigging, and have no relevance in the court of public opinions in their respective states. Of course, they have something in common”, the ACPP chairman said.
