Cross carpeting not amnesty for wrongdoing-Oba Ladoja

A former Governor of Oyo state and the Otun Olubadan of Ibadanland,  Oba Rashidi Ladoja has warned that cross carpeting from one political party to another was not a shield against corruption allegations.

Oba Ladoja gave this warning on Friday in an interaction with journalists in his Old Bodija, Ibadan, Nigeria residence.

''Moving from one political party to another is not new. Some people are doing this to protect themselves against the EFCC. However, moving  from one party to another should not be perceived as amnesty for wrong doing.'' he stated.

The former governor called on Nigerians to pray for the emergence of a government that would take care of the people, adding 2027 is still far way. Bola Tinubu has done well. Two years is still far, it just like we are playing football.''

Oba Ladoja wondered what had become of the labor movement in the country saying, '' I listened to the NLC president, Ajaero, I felt for him. He is leading a team that is neither here nor there.''
