Atiku: You’re Are All Saboteurs – Oyelese Fires Makinde, Wike, Others

A former Minister of Mines and Steel Development, Wole Oyelese, has berated the five aggrieved governors of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for working against the presidential candidate of the party, Atiku Abubakar.

Oyelese, a staunch member of the party in Oyo State, said Atiku is the symbol of the party and anybody who works against him is a “saboteur’

The former minister also disclosed that he intentionally boycotted Thursday’s campaign rally for the re-election of Govenor Seyi Makinde in Ibadan because he is not in support of the actions of the five governors.

He said, “I couldn’t have been there because the so-called G5 governors are working against the presidential candidate of the party who is the symbol of the party. For any serious politician, you will not attend such a function. By attending, it will be like an indirect way of approving what they are doing.

“Our knowledge of politics can never be the same. A serious politician who understands politics will not attend. Have you asked yourself why Ademola Adeleke who is the current Governor of Osun State and PDP Governor in the South-West was not there? Why Adebutu was not there?

“You remember, Adebutu sent someone to us yesterday (Wednesday) to participate in our Freedom March. If you check the flag-off, nobody from Ekiti State, nobody from Ondo. Fayose is one of the people supporting G5. Even though, we don’t know why they are supporting the G5.

“So, I couldn’t have been there. That means I’m rnor Seyi Makinde in Ibadan because he is not in support of the actions of the five governors.
