'I'm not afraid of Aregbesola', he boasted
Asiwaju Olanrewaju Gentry, CEO of LA Veronique Hotel, Oregun, Lagos and estranged hubby of Nollywood star, Mercy Aigbe, has declared his interest in the governorship seat of Osun state. .This he did via his Facebook page a couple of weeks back where he flaunted his awareness poster.
However, since the development, a lot of doubting Thomases have regarded the Ilesa, Osun born entrepreneur as a pretender being a new entrant in politics and on the ground that the incumbent governor, Aregbesola is still in charge of the state.
However, Larry Gentry, as the popular hotelier is fondly addressed, has vowed to forge ahead his ambition to occupy the Abere, Osun seat of power come October this year. He said this when the messageinternational.blogspot. com visited him in his Oregun, Lagos office recently.
"It's true, i am vying for Osun state governorship seat on the platform of United Democratic Party( UDP). If I win the ticket, I will be contesting for the exalted seat with the candidates from other political parties, including the All Progressives Congress(APC), People's Democratic Party(PDP) and others.
" I am not afraid of anybody, including Aregbesola. I will win the September guber poll by the special grace of God because Osun people need deliverance from APC. And PDP is dead already. So, my people want something new that will save them from the abject poverty they have been experiencing in the hands of APC led government.", he boasted.
