Politics: Why Dare Adeleke deserves better Appointment – PDP Chieftain, ALA

The 2nd term of Governor Seyi Makinde’s administration christened Omituntun 2.0., which began on 29th May 2023, is one with great expectations from the people of Oyo state who felt positive impact of government in the Governor’s first term between 2019 to 2023.

Aside from ministries headed by commissioners and permanent secretaries, some agencies also contributed significantly to the success story of the first coming of Governor Makinde.

One of the agencies that performed creditably well in providing essential services to the people of Oyo state is the Pace Setter Transport Services chaired by a Chieftain of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Prince Dare Adeleke.

The Pace Setter Transport Services under Hon. Dare Adeleke managed intra city buses known as Omituntun Buses covering strategic areas of Ibadan metropolis. Through quality service delivery and proper coordination, the people of the state, including market women and traders, enjoyed free transport for almost two months to cushion the effect of the cash crunch occasioned by the Naira Redesign policy, courtesy Governor Seyi Makinde.

The governor’s directive was effective during the period due to Hon. Adeleke’s pragmatic leadership style ensuring that the mandatory services of Omituntun Buses was sustained and impactful.

Apart from the superlative coordination at PTS, Hon Dare Adeleke’s contribution to the success of the PDP in Ibadan South-East/North-East Federal constituency was remarkable as he worked harmoniously with other leaders of the PDP to clinch all elective positions in the federal constituency, including four state assembly seats and overwhelming votes for Governor Seyi Makinde.

Either publicly or silently, Hon. Dare Adeleke was one of the reliable political allies of Governor Seyi Makinde, who is working round the clock to ensure the dividends of democracy cut across every nook and cranny of Oyo state.

For the successful and smooth running of government policies in the second term administration of Governor Makinde, Hon. Dare Adeleke deserved better political position so as to strengthening the political tentacles of PDP and that of Governor Makinde.
