What does Olusegun Mimiko want?

We are worried with the recent moves of the immediate past Governor of Ondo state, Dr. Olusegun Mimiko who is working to destabilize the Labour Party, he is one who is readily prepared to do anything for his personal interest and would have actually brought quality to the Labour Party if he was prepared to come with good intentions.

What is ordinarily expected of him is to help reconcile Dr. Mike Omotosho and Abdulkadir Abdulsalam. Unfortunately, he has not done anything of such but merely interested in bulldozing his way into our party by all means.

We wonder what Dr. Mimiko stand to benefit from his second coming to the Labour Party. Mimiko is someone who once used the platform of the Labour party to get to power and later jumped ship when he found it most convenient. This is a man that used our party to get to power in Ondo state only to dump the party for the PDP in his self-seeking quest. We don’t even have any problem with his second coming, except that his determination to destabilize our party in his quest to hijack the party structure is most worrisome to say the least.

Mimiko is a politician whose popularity and acceptance has waned dramatically in the PDP and he is only seeking a safe haven in the Labour Party. Majority of Mimiko’s appointees and aides when he was governor did not agree to decamp with him because of the deceit and slipperiness he is well known for.

We have it on good authority that only a scanty number of Mimiko’s aides and appointees have agreed to follow him to the Labour Party because of his known slippery nature. There should be a limit to the excesses of human beings in a desperate bid for political relevance. There is also a limit to the level to which a group of people can take people for a ride. Our group does not have any issues with Mimiko people joining us, but we are only opposed to his resolve to cause crisis and confusion in our party for selfish motive.

We are equally worried with the recent clandestine moves of Dr. Mimiko to return to the Labour Party through the back door and advise Labour Party members across the country to reject all the antics of Mimiko to foist Alhaji Abdulkadir Abdulsalam on the party as National Chairman through the back door. What more does a man that had served as a Commissioner, Secretary to Ondo State Government, Minister and Governor needs from the Labour Party that he once used and dumped?.

We need to ask Mimiko what he wants from our party this time around. After all, God has been kind enough to him by helping him to occupy important political positions in this country. The man should please allow Dr. Mike Omotosho to continue his good work as our national chairman and not bring crisis to our party that is known for peace and love.
