BENIN CITY – A political analyst, Chief Omo Lawal Osula has
condemned the recent pronouncement by a PDP chieftain, Chief Ebenezer
Babatope that he was sent by the national secretariat of the PDP to
install the party in Edo State and ensure victory for the party.
Chief Osula who stated this in an interview with The
NIGERIAN OBSERVER in Benin City yesterday, said that Babatope cannot
claim to be a credible politician with sincerity of purpose when it is
on record that he was one of those political loyalists of the late sage,
Chief Obafemi Awolowo during the days of the Action Group of Nigeria
and the Unity Party of Nigeria who betrayed the eminent politician.
Chief Osula said that Chief Awolowo’s vision for
Nigeria was frustrated by Chief Ebenezer Babatope and the late Chief
Bola Ige who was being groomed to take over from Chief Awolowo.
“He should have a lesson from Asiwaju’s enviable experience of
non-interference in the political affairs of other states through
political violence,” Chief Arala said.
He advised Chief Babatope to concentrate on his
state and constituency and deliver it for his party rather than engage
in making unnecessary political statements.
