Former Deputy Governor of Osun State and the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, in the 2014 governorship election, Dr Iyiola Omisore, has maintained that his ultimate ambition for seeking to govern the state is predicated on the determination to set the state free from the economic bondage and bad governance foisted on the state by the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
Omisore, who was reacting to a statement by the APC, that his governorship ambition had become delusional, stated that while he would have loved to maintain his silence and allow the people of the state, who have been thrown into hardship, abject penury and financial insecurity by the Rauf Aregbesola government, to speak for themselves, his desire to stand for the people, would not let him.
In a statement by his media office, Omisore, who represented Osun East Senatorial District between 2003 and 2011, said but for the need to set the records straight and to ensure that the APC did not continue to distract the people and divert attention from pressing governance issues in the state.
