The quick past governor of Oyo State, Abiola Ajimobi has said he prefers heading off to the Senate than turning into a minister in President Muhammadu Buhari’s expected cabinet.
Ajimobi in a meeting with newsmen in Ibadan on Thursday, clarified that the ministerial appointment ought to go to more youthful individuals from the party in Oyo State since he isn’t the main APC part in the state.
As per him, recovering his order in the last senatorial decision in court is more imperative to him than seeking after an ecclesiastical arrangement.
Ajimobi, in any case, noticed that President Buhari has not offered him any clerical arrangement, focusing on that it was the reason he was focused on the appeal his gathering recorded against Senator Kola Balogun at the court.
Ajimobi stated: “I am in court for my senatorial election. I only expressed my preference that I am in court because I prefer the Senate.
“How can I be pursuing the Senate and ministerial appointment at the same time? I prefer the Senate.“I hold President Muhammadu Buhari in high esteem. I will actually prefer a younger person to be considered for the ministerial slot since I am pursuing my senatorial ambition.”
It would be recalled that Balogun who contested on the platform of People’s Democratic Party (PDP), was declared the winner of the Oyo South Senatorial District election by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
