The leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun State has described a former Governor of the state and current Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Alhaji Adeboyega Oyetola as a party unifier who has been reinforcing it against disintegration.
In a goodwill birthday anniversary message issued by the party’s Director of Media and Information, Chief Kola Olabisi, the state chairman of the party, Sooko Tajudeen Lawal said Oyetola has been proving through his actions and inactions that the interest of the party is foremost among his priorities.
Lawal noted that the current oneness, unity, indivisible and impenetrable posture of the leading opposition party in the state since the mantle of its leadership fell into his hand has been due to his being an uncommon manager of human resources through his unique attributes.
He described the ‘Birthday Boy’ as a silent operator who does not give to frivolities and loudness before he accomplishes his set target in various spheres of life.
The state APC chairman stated further that the former Osun State Governor Oyetola has been able to perform optimally in his ministry where he is the maiden minister because of the inherent discipline and courage to excel wherever he finds himself in a position of leadership.
Lawal recalled how the Iragbiji-born state leader of the APC was able to transform all the nooks and crannies of the state during his four-year tenure as the Osun State Governor despite obvious paucity of fund.
He described Alhaji Oyetola as an uncommon political leader because he belongs to the league of politicians who would never employ lies in his dealings whatever situation he may be finding himself.
Lawal stated that the minister of Marine and Blue Economy has indeed contributed his quota not only to Osun State but to the entire nation as the first minister in charge of that ministry who has been very resourceful and there is no way the history of the nation could be written to be whole without mentioning his name.
The Osun State APC leader also described Alhaji Oyetola as a man of perpetual peace who abhors violence like a plague in his socio-political and economic pursuit which is a virtue that has been his trademark in his journey of life.
In Lawal’s words: “It is for these reasons that I am joining the relations, friends, well-wishers and political associates of our leader, Alhaji Gboyega Oyetola, on behalf of my family, the state executive officers of our party, members and supporters, to congratulate him on his 70th birthday anniversary today.”
“May Allah continue to extend His magnanimity to the birthday celebrant by blessing him with many more eventful years in the land of the living”, the Osun State APC Chairman prayed.
