Former Oyo State governor and Labour Party flag bearer in the 2015 governorship election, Otunba Adebayo Alao-Akala, yesterday rolled out his 13-point agenda aimed at alleviating the sufferings of the people of the state.The former governor, while inaugurating the Alao-Akala Campaign Committee in Ibadan yesterday, said the party would work assiduously to transform the society into a better one and actualise the dreams of the teeming supporters to enjoy the dividends of democracy.
He listed the 13-point agenda to include good governance, health/sustainable environment, poverty alleviation, industrialisation, employment opportunities, infrastructure regeneration, international trades, education, power and security among others.
While noting that the country faces serious economic crisis as a result of the dwindling price of oil in the international market, he said the implication is that there is a major challenge ahead.
The LP governorship flag bearer said that it would require an experienced leader and great party to provide hope and bring genuine change to Oyo State citizens.
He said, “As advocates of discipline, orderliness, we should endeavour to go about the campaign without rancour or bitterness. Let us show the example of good neighbourliness and teach the opposition how best to campaign in a democratic setting.
“We have listened to the voices of the downtrodden masses who are presently suffering untold hardship under the present administration. We will bring smiles to the faces of those people whose businesses and means of livelihood have been destroyed”.
