Gbenga Olayemi and Special Adviser, Communication and Strategy to Late Governor Abiola Ajimobi, Mr Bolaji Tunji.
At the end of the deliberation which was presided over by Alhaji Abu Gbadamosi, the meeting agreed to work together while the coming together has clearly shown that the reconciliation effort started by the late former Governor Abiola Ajimobi has yielded positive result.
The meeting also noted that they would avoid mistakes of the past which led to the disagreement that resulted in the loss of the governorship position in the last election.
“Today’s meeting has clearly shown our resolve to put the past behind and work together in order to strengthen the party in the state. We have decided to work with honesty of purpose. This is more so as we are ideologically the same and we see things the same way”, Senator Lanlehin stated.
The stakeholders at the meeting lauded the immediate past First Lady of the State, Chief(Dr) Florence Ajimobi for sustaining the spirit of reconciliation that was initiated by the former Governor of the state, Senator Abiola Ajimobi.
