Ahead of 2023, former Oyo State Governor Chief Rashidi Ladoja, on Sunday, August 22, 2023 reportedly met with Chief Alani Bankole, father of ex-speaker Bankole, in Abeokuta
According to reports, the meeting which lasted for about four hours came six days after the Chairman of the All Progressives Congress Caretaker and Extraordinary Convention Planning, Mai Mala Buni and two other Governors met with some leaders in the South-West, including Chief Ladoja and ex-speaker Bankole.
Punch reports that the meeting between Ladoja and Bankole’s father ended at 5:00 pm might not be unconnected with the 2023 election.
Emerging from the meeting, Ladoja described his visit as a usual visit to his brother while charging the youths in the Country to be politically active in the coming election.
He however said he and Bankole have left partisan politics for the youths in the Country.
He said “I came to visit my brother. It was a usual visit. I have quit partisan politics and my brother (Bankole) has left partisan politics.
“One needs to quit when the ovation is loudest for the young ones.”
