Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>A former Secretary to the Oyo State Government, Barrister Sharafadeen Abiodun Alli, has said that former Governor Adebayo Alao-Akala was making efforts to reposition the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state.<\/p>\n

Alli made this disclosure in a statement made available to DAILY POST on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Our correspondent recalls that Alao-Akala died on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The former Governor, who died at the age of 71, ruled the state as Governor between 2007 and 2011 under the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).<\/p>\n

In 2015, Alao-Akala made efforts to return to the Agodi government house when he contested the gubernatorial election on the platform of the Action Democratic Party (ADP).<\/p>\n

Our correspondent recalls that Alao-Akala later joined APC in the buildup to the 2019 general elections.<\/p>\n

Alao-Akala was until his death, a chieftain of the APC.<\/p>\n

But Alli, while reacting to Alao-Akala\u2019s death, explained that the former Governor was making efforts to reposition the APC in a bid to reclaim the state.<\/p>\n

Alli, who was the deputy gubernatorial candidate to Alao-Akala when the former Governor contested on the platform of ADP in 2015, insisted that APC would miss the one-time Governor.<\/p>\n

He added that Alao-Akala was a leader and boss with a pure heart and generous instinct.<\/p>\n

He described his death as a major setback to APC in the state.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a rude shock to me. I was close to Otunba Akala and I am down as I send this condolence message. I know our moves during our political sojourn in 2015 when I contested as his running mate in 2015. We were friends, brothers and political associates.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe was generous with a pure heart. Akala committed the state resources to human and state development,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince he was appointed as a leader of our dear state, Akala has been making efforts to reposition our party. We all missed him\u201d.<\/p>\n
