Folarin who spoke at the inauguration of the party’s presidential and governorship campaign council in Ibadan referenced the speech of Oyo Deputy governor,
Adebayo Lawal, at an Afenifere meeting in Akure, on Sunday where he said that his principal, Seyi Makinde, would stand with the Yoruba ahead of 2023 election.
The senator said, “The good news is, in Akure yesterday, there was a meeting by Afenifere. It was across party lines. The Oyo governor sent his deputy and he sang the Asiwaju song. If that is their position, they should send their party chairman to meet with ours, so we wouldn’t disturb INEC. “We have our candidate, Asiwaju and they have their own, Atiku, if they now want to support our candidate, we are all aware that resources are scarce, we can then advise INEC, don’t come to Oyo State.
“We have extended an invitation. I am serious. We don’t want to stress anybody, we can agree on the percentage to give Asiwaju.”
