The posters of former Governor Adebayo Alao-Akala and Seyi Makinde surfaced in strategic places in Ibadan on Friday.
Both politicians belong to the Peoples Democratic Party.
While the posters of Alao-Akala do not indicate the position he is vying for in 2015, Makinde’s posters have ‘Oyo Guber 2015’ on his posters.
The posters are prominently displayed along University of Ibadan/Ojoo Road, Sango, Secretariat Road and PDP secretariat on Queen Elizabeth road.
A source close to Makinde’s camp, Akeem Azeez, told our correspondent that the posters actually belonged to the young politician, adding that the purpose of pasting them was to send a message across to everyone in the state that Makinde was serious about his ambition.
He said, “We have commenced the awareness campaign to let the people of the state know that Makinde will vie for the governorship position in the coming election. It is also a strategy to promote PDP.”
It was learnt that after series of meeting in Ibadan and Ogbomoso, Alao-Akala had been making attempt to bring together aggrieved PDP members, culminating in a town hall meeting held at Plaza de Aruna in Oyo in December 2013.
the ex-governor was said to have met with some of the members from Oyo Federal Constituency, comprising Afijio, Atiba, Oyo-East and Oyo-West.
A source close to Alao-Akala told our correspondent on Friday that there was no decision yet on which position Alao-Akala would contest in the coming general elections
