The group made this known to newsmen today, in Abeokuta while Hon Bisi Oyemade, the Coordinator talked bitterly on the foreigner taking charge of what belongs to the indigenous sons and daughters of Obafemi-Owode local government, which he described as negligence on the part of the sons and daughters of the soil.

 

However, he called on the true sons and daughters of Obafemi-Owode local government to engage themselves in active politics to enable them project the image of the constituency as well as represent the good people normally because they know what the constituency needed at a particular time.

“We want to charge the true sons and daughters of Obafemi-Owode local government to engage themselves in active and viable politics to ensure quality representation, enough of all these foreigners coming on board when election draws nearer to take advantage of our slots at the state house of assemblies in the state” Oyemade said.
He categorically stated that the group is an independent organization composed of eminent sons and daughters with main focus on ensuring that true sons and daughters represent them at the state house of Assembly.
In nostalgic manner, he recounted the good old days when the likes of Hon. Dele Erisan and Rt. Hon. Tunji Egbetokun represented, boasting no one has been able to surpass their legacies.
They used the opportunity to call on apex leaders, to heed to this clarion call and ensure that the ugly trend is reversed.
The group appreciated the efforts of apex leaders in the recent appointments by His Excellency, Prince Dapo Abiodun mfr.
Also, he congratulated the chairman of All Progressive Congress APC in Ogun State, Chief Yemi Sanusi for a successful inauguration despite all odds.

To provide succour to Nigerians, Dangote recently reduced the price of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) from N970 to N899.50 at its Refinery loading gantry and provided generous credit terms to marketers.

 

 

“To ensure that this price reduction gets to the end consumer, we have signed a partnership with MRS to sell petrol from its retail outlets nationwide at N935 per litre” he added. This price has already commenced in Lagos, and it will be offered nationwide from Monday.

 

 

In his statement, he called on other oil marketers such as the NNPC Retail and all other marketers, “to work with us to ensure that Nigerians enjoy high-quality petrol at discounted prices.”

 

 

According to him, “The Dangote Refinery is for the benefit of Nigeria and Nigerians. We will therefore continue to work with various value chain players to deliver high quality petrol at cheaper prices. Our aim is for all Nigerians to have ready access to high quality petroleum products that are good for their vehicles, good for their health, and good for their pockets.

 

 

Recall that in September, the Federal Executive Council (FEC) under the leadership of Mr. President approved the sale of crude to local refineries in Naira and corresponding purchase of petroleum products in Naira.
