Ladoja meets Lanlehin, Alli in Lagos
Former Governor Rashidi Ladoja of Oyo State on Monday met the governorship candidates of the African Democratic Congress and the Zenith Labour Party, Senator Olufemi Lanlehin and Chief Sharafadeen Abiodun Alli respectively in his Apapa, Lagos residence.
Both gladiators arrived at Ladoja’s house unannounced.
Sources at the meeting confided in The PUNCH correspondent that Lanlehin arrived ahead of Alli as their host held separate meetings with both of them before bringing them to the table afterwards.
He thereafter encouraged both Lanlehin and Alli to see each other as fighting the cause of liberating the masses of Oyo State from the current leadership and enjoined them to refrain from statements capable of inflaming the already tensed situation in their camps.
