Senator representing Oyo North senatorial district, Fatai Buhari has said the Oyo state governor, Seyi Makinde, and Oyo People’s Democratic Party can’t remove the deputy governor, Engr. Rauf Olaniyan after defecting to APC.
Buhari while featuring on a radio program in Ibadan on Saturday morning explained that, aside from having a majority at the House of Assembly he said, it will take the governor and his people time to finish the process of impeachment, by writhing the lawmakers with open charges and can only nail the deputy governor if he is found guilty of the charge(s).
He argues that the deputy governor, Olaniyan committed no crime by joining a political party of his choice ( APC ) after getting to power through PDP.
” The deputy governor didn’t break any law, there is a freedom of association, more so, he owes his allegiance to the people of the state, not governor Makinde or PDP.
Sen. Fatai Buhari said Olaniyan got his Oyo deputy seat through a joint ticket with Makinde, so his decision to jump ship should be left to him to decide not Makinde or PDP.
Speaking further, senator. Buhari said the state governor is a poor manager, adding that, his inability to manage crises and the importance of politicians in his party like Olaniyan will cost him a lot during the election.
He also made it known that the Oyo deputy governor is an asset to the APC, as they are ready to make use of his experience, as his structure will be an added advantage to winning 2023 elections in the state.
