ABEOKUTA – The governorship candidate of People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Ogun State, Hon. Oladipupo Adebutu has called on Muslims faithful in the state to vote for candidate with good character and fear of God.
Adebutu said Nigeria remains a stagnant nation due to leadership failure.
He said since 1992 he had been serving Ogun state as a lawmaker and political appointee, he had served with the fear of God and had never embezzled government funds or diverted people’s money for personal use.
He spoke on Sunday in Abeokuta at the Muslims Support Rally For LADO and Islamic Public Lecture with the theme: “Sustaining a viable leadership; Muslims On Call”, organized by LADO Muslims Affairs Forum.
He reiterated that, his massive empowerment programmes across the 20 local government areas of the state was seek the favour of God and His mercy in the life after.
“A true Muslim must belief in all the Holy books as an article of faith. I am not strange to Islam and I am happy from 1992 I have been trying to save Ogun state. It is over 30years I have been serving Ogun state.
“During my time at the National Assembly, I served with the fear of God, I didn’t steal constituency fund. The transformers I bought for communities in Ogun state are more than the state government herself.
“I have donated more boreholes where the state government failed to provide portable water system. I am doing this for the day of judgement. If you can join hands with me, and I get to the promise land, I will rule with the fear of God which is the beginning of wisdom. Let us vote for the man with fear of God. I have made promise, there will be liberation in Ogun state. If you elect me as your Governor, I will return Local Government Autonomy,” Adebutu averred.
The Governorship candidate, therefore, warned parents to caution their children from joining the ongoing protest occasioned by the Naira scarcity in the country.
Adebutu said those that orchestrated the protest are those allegedly behind the hoarding of old naira notes.
“Don’t join any protest, those behind this protest are those who have billions of naira at home. Those that stole Local Government funds are behind these riots. The riot is not organic, caution your children not to be part of a process they know nothing about.”
