Osun State Governor, Mr. Rauf Aregbesola, has described as unfounded the claim by the Peoples Democratic Party that his administration has concluded plans to sack no fewer than 10,000 workers.
Aregbesola made this denial in a statement issued on his behalf by his media aide, Mr. Semiu Okanlawon, and a copy of which was made available to our correspondent on Sunday.
The governor said the PDP sponsored many lies to pull down his government but added that the opposition had been failing in their alleged plots to instigate the people of the state against his government
He said, “The so-called plan to sack 10,000 workers is in the imagination of the Peoples Democratic Party. Discerning and decent people have come to the inevitable conclusion that when PDP makes any allegation, you must quickly dismiss it as being in its character to fabricate falsehood in order to confuse the unsuspecting masses.
“But the relevant question that must be asked is: has PDP’s notoriety in lying helped it achieve anything in the state of Osun? The answer is a big No. And that is because the ordinary Osun people who understand perfectly the positive impact of the Aregbesola administration have left PDP behind in its lying act.
“This latest falsehood is part of its calculated move to misinform workers, confuse them and demoralise them. Nowhere has the Aregbesola administration signified any intention to sack any worker.”
The governor also said that the opposition party failed woefully in its plot to capitalise on the workers’delayed salaries to instigate them against the government by sponsoring series of protests.
Reacting to the allegation that he had refused to sell the helicopter bought by his administration for surveillance, he said this showed that the PDP had run out of ideas hence their advice that the chopper which he said was being used for security operations be sold.
