Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, has promised to further raise the bar by delivering more developmental initiatives for Osun people, if re-elected.
Adeleke stated this in Erin-Osun and Ilobu in Irepodun Local Government Area of the state during the Imole Campaign Council’s consultation and mobilisation tour ahead of the governorship election.
In a statement signed by the governor’s spokesperson, Olawale Rasheed, obtained in Osogbo on Thursday, Adeleke said his administration had fulfilled the promises made to the people during the 2022 campaign.
He further stressed that greater achievements lie ahead of the state, if re-elected.
“I appreciate your support. When we came here in 2022, I promised you good governance, and I have fulfilled what I promised.
“But the people have not seen anything yet. We will do much more for Osun State,” Adeleke said.
Speaking at the grand finale of the campaign rally in Ilobu, former Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Lasun Yusuf, who spoke on behalf of other stakeholders in Irepodun Local Government, passed a vote of confidence in Adeleke’s administration.
Yusuf also assured Adeleke of “overwhelming support and victory in the August 15 governorship election.”
In their separate royal remarks, the Elerin of Erin-Osun, Oba Yusuf Adekunle, prayed for Adeleke’s successful re-election.
Oba Adekunle also expressed confidence that the people of Erin-Osun would once again entrust him with the mandate to continue the transformation of Osun State.
Similarly, the Olobu of Ilobu, Oba Ashiru Olatoye, assured the governor and members of the Imole Campaign Council of the support of Ilobu, expressing confidence that the people of Irepodun Local Government would overwhelmingly back the Governor’s second-term bid.
“You have our prayers and our support. Ilobu stands with you, and the people of Irepodun Local Government will once again support your re-election. May God grant you victory and strengthen you to continue delivering good governance and development across Osun State,” the monarch said.
The PUNCH reports that electorate will be going to the poll on August 15 to elect a governor and 14 political parties are fielding candidates in the poll.
