The former Mushin local government chairman, popularly called GOS, stated this in Lagos, yesterday, while commenting on his visit to Osun to congratulate Governor Rauf Aregbesola on his re-election.
“It is a fact that I was in Osun to give my brother, Governor Aregbesola, my support during the last days of his campaign rallies. However, after the election victory I had to go back there last Thursday to congratulate him because his election is not only a pacesetter in the South-west but a pointer to what the country should expect in 2015”, the senator with a large political followership in Lagos disclosed.
GOS, who is contesting the state governorship from the Lagos East Senatorial Zone, argued that the Osun victory was a moral booster for APC members and supporters across the country, adding: “As long as the party leadership does not derail from the path of internal democracy that has been followed in Anambra, Ekiti and Osun states, we will not have cause to grapple with any big challenge.”
Solomon, who was also a member of the House of Representatives, said what happened in Osun was an indication that “popular candidates presented to the electorate through credible party primaries cannot be intimidated by any federal might because his people will stick out their neck to stand with him and fight for him.”
