“While we are not against the appointment of the former chairman ,it is our view that such should be restricted to his area in lrekari LCDA and not for Ose LGA as we are now being made to understand.

“While lrekari LCDA can boast of some positions like member of the State House of Assembly, Senior Special Assistant (SSA) to Governor on Women Affairs, ODIEC Electoral Officer and a Commissioner in the Local Government Service Commission (LGSC), Ose LGA cannot boast of such.

“On this note, the leaders of our  party in the three wards of Ose LGA have met and resolved to present the distinguished, committed and trusted party members to you (Adetimehin) for  consideration for the appointment of any of them as Ose LGA caretaker committee chairman .” the letter said.

The leaders also met with the State Commissioner for Natural Resources, Mr Olayato Aribo in Akure to present the issue before him.
