The Oyo State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has lashed out at Governor Seyi Makinde over his comments on the security situation in the state, describing them as a misrepresentation of the constitutional responsibilities of state governors.
The state APC spokesman, Olawale Sadare, in a statement on
Sunday, also rejected Makinde’s remarks that he was constrained in tackling
insecurity because all security structures are controlled by the Federal
Government.
Sadare described the governor’s comments as “a height of
cluelessness, insincerity and criminal ineptitude,” adding that he should not
shift responsibility for security challenges in the state.
The APC also asked Makinde to resign from office and allow
his Deputy to complete the remaining one year of his tenure.
“Parochial leaders like Makinde pose a grave danger to the
growth and development of the Nigerian society, and it is important for the
electorate to avoid them in future elections,” the statement said.
Recall that Makinde, in his acceptance speech as the
presidential candidate of the Allied Peoples Movement, APM, in Ibadan on
Saturday complained that there was little he could do to rescue the
schoolchildren and other people abducted by bandits in the state, since he has
no absolute control over all security agencies.
