We Have To Obey, Submit To Our Party Leadership Again, Adesokan Says In His Open Letter

Ahead of the party primaries for 2023 general election, one of the leading aspirant for Oyo State House of Assembly in Ibarapa East Constituency under the platform of the All Progressive Congress, (APC), Tpl Adesokan Samuel Adelodun, has stepped down his ambition barring last minute decision of the party leaders.

This was contained in an open letter which was made available to SpyGist Media.

The letter reads in part;

Open Letter

Dear party leaders, supporters and followers,

Its my sincere pleasure to greatly appreciate your  endless supports since the beginning of my political ambition for the State Assembly position since 2019 under the platforms of ADC and now in APC.

It is quite unfortunate  that we have to obey and submit to our party leadership again. Lanlate comprises of four wards out of the ten wards that made up Ibarapa East State Constituency.I am from ward 9 which has never produced House of Assembly member since 1999 till date.

Many of us know that buying nomination form is never an issue for a candidate who had been creating strong awareness and consultation across the board in our dear constituency for well over four years.

But who are we to proceed further when leaders had spoken. We believe they can not plead and beg us and we still turn them down. That may turn to be a disrespect to their personalities.

Although the decision did not go well with us and we made our leaders aware of that but they have pleaded enough with us and we must let go as they want in the interest of our dear Community.

We believe we want to serve people and the community and if community leaders say we should wait a bit and allow another fellow go for now, we can not query them again and we strongly believe that our own time will never elude us.

So, in the interest of peace, unity and progress as the motor of our dear party APC, I wish to state here that we have been asked to step down for a brother of ours to represent our dear Community Lanlate with our  sister community Eruwa in the forth coming APC Primaries election.

Finally, I wish to register that we will never relent but rather work harder to unite all party faithful by making sure we all bury our prides and come together to win all our polls (Presidency, Senates, Reps and State Assembly respectively come 2023.

I therefore plead to our lovers to please see our decision as a BIG sacrifice to ensure peace and harmony. No sacrifice is too small for ones community.

I pledge my total commitment, loyalty, dedication and consistency to our dear party, her leadership, stakeholder and all our lovers. Please don’t leave your son because our time is on the way and I pray we all be alive to witness it together.

Thank you all for your time, energy and resources.

Long live ward 9,
Long live Lanlate Community,
Long live Ibarapa East,
Long live Oyo state,
Long live Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Your Humble Servant,
Tpl.Dr.Adesokan Samuel.
