Senator Omisore stated this in a statement signed by his Director of Media and Strategy, Mr. Diran Odeyemi and made available to Journalists in Osogbo.

He said Tinubu is afraid of losing in Osun and Ekiti states, as his new political venture called APC failed woefully in recent election held in Ondo and Anambra states.

Omisore who represented Osun East Senatorial District in Senate from 2003-2011 and former deputy governor during Alhaji Adebisi Akande tenure in Osun state had in different occasions affirmed he is on rescue mission to bring hope for people of the state.

The statement reads, “Ordinarily, we wouldn’t have taken issues with him knowing full well that the August 9 gubernatorial election will vindicate the PDP, but in order to put the issues in proper perspective, we want to let every discerning Nigerians particularly Osun indigenes know that Mr. Tinubu is fixated because of the defeat starring his sidekick, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola in the face.

“The rig and roast campaign that he has embarked on with Ogbeni Aregbesola is to prepare the ground for the mayhem they planned to unleash on the people once they lose, which is imminent.

“We have discovered that by threatening fire and brimstone should the APC loose the election, Tinubu and Aregbesola were merely trying to protect their business empire in Osun.

“The APC inspite of its grandstanding lost woefully in Ondo and Anambra gubernatorial elections because people are now seeing through the deceit and empty promises where they hold sway.

“Let Tinubu and Aregbesola be prepared to commit political harakiri since the people have rejected them and no amount of blood letting campaign will dissuade the people from voting for the PDP on August 9.”
