OSOGBO—Osun State governor, Mr Rauf
Aregbesola has launched an attack on President Goodluck Jonathan, lamenting that
the country under the current administration is being badly managed.
Aregbesola,
who spoke at a book presentation to mark the 50th birthday of a front line
rights activist, Comrade Amitolu Shittu, said under Jonathan, Nigeria’s economy
has nose-dived to the point of near collapse and that Nigerians deserve to know
the true state of affairs in the country.
He said:
“Politics aside, the truth about Nigeria is that the people currently managing
it at the centre, careless about the people but themselves.
The governor
added that the situation has gotten so bad in Nigeria that all Nigerians must
decide to change the situation and save the country from bad managers who only
think about themselves.
He
reminded pro-democracy activists and organisations in Nigeria and beyond of the
urgent need to reconvene as a strategy towards ensuring the victory of the All
Progressives Congress, APC, presidential candidate for the 2015 election, Gen.
Muhammadu Buhari (rtd).
Aregbesola
said the time is now for those who had in the past rendered selfless services
to their fatherland by confronting dictatorial governments and installing
democratic rule.
“Wherever
you find PDP, you will find misery, poverty, under-development. We must
remember that the encounter of our people and experience especially in the
South West geo-political zone have never brought anything positive. Our people
had associated their party with misfortune and till today, they remain the
same.”
Earlier,
Shittu chided former Military Head of State, Ibrahim Babangida for openly
supporting Jonathan, saying it was only corrupt Nigerians like Babangida that
would support the current administration which had no good plans for Nigerians.
