  February 14, 2021 Press Statement Don’t Ever Contemplate Another Fuel Price Increase, PDP Tells APC Administration The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) charges the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its government to perish any thoughts of further increase of fuel price in the country. The PDP alerts that it has been made aware of discussions and consultation in the APC and its administration for further increase of fuel price from the unbearable N170 to a higher figure. Our party cautions the APC to immediately perish such contemplations as it would amount to pushing the already impoverished Nigerians to the wall; a situation that might result in public restiveness and acerbation of agitations in the land.

  SOUTH WEST GOVERNORS FORUM PRESS STATEMENT We note with deep concern the most unfortunate and avoidable orgy of violence in Shasha, Ibadan, the Oyo State Capital. As Governor of Ondo State who doubles as Chairman, South West Governors' Forum, it becomes very compelling for me to address ALL RESIDENTS, in particular, the Yoruba speaking people of our dear Region as regards recent happenings bordering on security. Without doubt, the situation we have found ourselves as a people is most despicable and contends violently against, and abhorrently at variance with the values and hospitality for which our people are known.

In this regard, we urge all indigenes of the South West to sustain these values and enviable virtues by remaining law abiding. Our resolve in this direction is not...
