The former member of House of Representatives, Hon. Mulikat Akande-Adeola has claimed that the Governor of Oyo State, Engr. Seyi Makinde worked against her Senatorial ambition in 2019.
Mulikat who contested for senatorial seat in Oyo North Senatorial District stated this while featuring on a radio programme anchored by Edmund Obilo on Splash FM as monitored by ODUDUWA NEWS.
She was quoted as saying, ” My interest and interest of my people is paramount and if I notice that my interest is not protected any longer, I would not keep quiet.
“The Governor met us in PDP and we mobilized support for him for his emergence and since the inception of his administration, he has been making every attempt to relegate me politically, some of my supporters who supposed to be given fair share of representation in his administration were totally sidelined.
“I have incontrovertible evidence that Gov Seyi Makinde worked against my senatorial ambition, Makinde was behind my defeat in Iseyin and Saki because some of his footsoldiers ensured that I lost in both local government councils that I needed to coast home for victory.
“I decided to move on despite their plot against me but they never stopped at making every effort to scheme me out politically. He even attributed his plot to ensure my defeat to the fact that if I had won I would be too powerful to be controlled”.
She however, clarified that she is no longer in PDP again and that she has instructed her followers to continue their political journey in the newly adopted party.
