A member of the House of Representatives representing Ayedaade/Irewole/Isokan Federal Constituency, Lanre Oladebo, has advised politicians against destroying political relationships over unfavourable outcomes in ongoing party primaries.
Oladebo gave the advice in a statement personally signed by him and made available to journalists in Osogbo on Friday.
In the statement titled, ‘Please be careful, don’t burn bridges,’ the lawmaker reflected on his political journey, recalling how he eventually made it to the House of Representatives despite losing a primary election in 2022.
He said, “Exactly 4 years ago. On Sunday, 22nd of May, 2022. I lost a primary election to the late Otunba Sola Arabambi of blessed memory. At that moment, it could have been easy to become discouraged, angry, or take actions driven by emotions.
