Ahead of the October 10 governorship election in Ondo state, the candidate of the Zenith Labour Party (ZLP) and state Deputy Governor, Hon Agboola Ajayi and his estranged boss, Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu are now on the war path over the fee of renting MKO Abiola Democracy Park, Akure for the ZLP campaign flag off slated for this week.
SUNSHINETRUTH reports that the Personal Assistant (PA) to the Deputy Governor, Sam Ogunmusi had posted on his Facebook page that "Aketi gave Democracy park to PDP for N5m, now he insisted ZLP must pay N11m for same park. Is this fear or what?" this afternoon to lament what he described as an unjust treatment from the governor.
Reacting to the post, the Spokesman of Akeredolu/Aiyedatiwa Campaign Organization, Richard Olabode Olatunde, said Agboola should seek financial assistance if he is broke.
Olatunde opined, "How much is 11million from your N10Billion? Stop dragging AKETI's name into all your problems. If you are broke, look for help."
Ogunmusi replied, "It is not about the money but about maintaining a standard on govt properties. It sud not always be used to witch hunt but we sud be able to regulate things as a discipline civil society for us to grow as a nation.
"With the way things are going , our system will always collapse . That is d direction am looking at not issue of maybe the money is too much or not. I think all these block heads wud open now…Sam Ogunmusi.
"Shame that the govt can not maintain a standard but allowed wickedness and parochial thinking to prevail in its system.
One of the Facebook users, Joshua Kester posited that, "I can't understand this our country. The place belong to the state and their should be standard procedure for rent.
"It shouldn't have anything to do with Aketi. When are we go to start running things as a system rather than individual's decision? No wonder we are struggling and it ll continue," said Joshua Kester.
