The Ogun State Commissioner of Information, Yusuph Olaniyonu, has described the Labour Party in the state as “idle” for calling for the impeachment of Governor Ibikunle Amosun.
The Labour Party had on Tuesday called on members of the Ogun State House of Assembly to sack the Governor over the violent political crisis in the state.
It accused the governor of sponsoring the political thugs that disrupted two meetings in Ewekoro and Abeokuta that saw several people struck by gunshots.
The Labour Party made the allegations in a statement signed by its state Chairman, Olabode Simeon and Secretary, Sunday Ogini.
However the Ogun State Government said that Ogun State was 1000% safer than when Otunba Gbenga Daniels was Governor. Gbenga Daniel is also a member of the Labour Party.
Olaniyonu, in his reaction said: “ We are busy with governance. Everybody knows that lives are more secure and safer in Ogun State.
“Ogun State is 1,000 per cent safer than before when their leader was in power.
“ They should be busy. We are busy constructing roads, we are busy building schools, we are busy fulfilling the mandate of the people.
“They should provide best alternatives. They are just grand- standing, playing to gallery and taking time in mischief.”
