The All Progressives Congress in Osun State have urged the local government chairmen elected under the party to receive the returning council workers with an open hand within the limit of the rules and regulations guiding their engagement.
The APC, in a statement e-signed by its Director of Media and Information, Kola Olabisi, also commended the Nigeria Police Command over its proactive approach to maintain law and order towards the resumption of the local government workers.
The statement noted that the police’s approach to the issue of the resumption of the local government workers was a demonstration of professional zeal, which is a necessary attribute in a genuine democratic dispensation.
“We are not unmindful of the superlative constitutional roles of the Nigeria Police and other sister statutory security services who have been keeping peace at the various local government council areas since the reinstatement of the APC council chairmen and councillors by the Court of Appeal on the 10th of February, 2025.
“We are not in doubt that the untoward episode which led to the needless gruesome murder of one of the reinstated local government council chairmen, Hon Remi Abass, of Irewole Local Government Council Area of the state, by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) political thugs would be timeously addressed by the ever-vigilant and Eagle-eyed men and officers of the statutory security services,” the APC noted.
The statement further assured Osun residents that the council workers resuming back to work would translate to the rapid development at the grassroots level of government in the state.
