*Says his alleged behaviour towards Alhaji Arapaja uncalled for
By; BAYO AKAMO, Ibadan
A group within the Peoples Democratic Party ( PDP), in Oyo State, PDP Youth Initiative today, lashed out at the House of Representatives member representing Ibadan South East/ North East Federal Constituency, Hon. Abass Adigun Agboworin over alleged insult and disrespect for the PDP Deputy National Chairman (South), Alhaji Taofeek Arapaja.
The PDP group in a statement signed by its President, Wasiu Ojo and Secretary, Ezekiel Alao, accused Hon Agboworin of allegedly consistently insulting and disrespecting Alhaji Taofeek Arapaja.
Frowning at the alleged disrespect for PDP leaders by Hon Agboworin, the group noted that he has therefore allegedly decided to bite the fingers that fed him and that his alleged behaviour of Hon Agboworin towards Alhaji Taofeek Arapaja is uncalled for.
PDP Youth Initiative then called on leaders in the Federal Constituency to call Hon Agboworin to order and screen properly those that will represent the party in future elections, saying they must be people who passed the Omoluabi Integrity test.
“Instead of showing gratitude for his undeserved elevation, Hon Agboworin has shamelessly turned his back on those who facilitated his rise, particularly his most recent effrontery in consistently insulting and disrespecting a political icon in the person of Ambassador Taofeek Arapaja, the party’s Deputy National Chairman (South)”, it said.
The group added, ” For Agboworin to be messing up with our leader, Alhaji Arapaja is nothing but showing Agboworin as an Ingrate for biting the finger that fed him”
“Before Agboworin started growing into thinking he would join politics, Alhaji Taofeek Arapaja has gone to the House of Representatives, was a former deputy Governor in our dear state , Oyo and he was a former Nigerian Ambassador. Currently, he is the Deputy National Chairman of the PDP . So he is a national leader”.
The PDP Youth Initiative stressed, “His disrespect towards figures who helped shape his political career is a testament to his character, or rather, lack thereof. Ingratitude seems to be the hallmark of his tenure, a quality wholly unbefitting of a public servant.
