Osun State Governor, Adegboyega Oyetola has been accused of restricting access to the Osogbo City Stadium and Freedom Park, Osogbo for the Peoples
This allegation was made by Ademola Adeleke, the PDP gubernatorial candidate in the Saturday, July 6, Osun gubernatorial election on the sideline of the National Peace Committee peace accord signing by gubernatorial candidates and their political parties in Osogbo on Wednesday.
Adeleke stated that the use of either venues for the rally became necessary because of the calibre of guests and party bigwigs expected in Osogbo. “PDP National Campaign Committee for Osun election is showing commitment to this campaign, but we have been denied access to the stadium and Freedom Park.”Speaking for the government, Funke Egbemode, the Osun Commissioner for Information and Civic Orientation explained that the venues had been approved for other programmes prior to the request by Adeleke and the PDP to use either of them.
Both parties have also accused each other of orchestrating attacks against their party members and of also being the cause of violence in some areas of the State.
