Following the victory of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the just concluded Osun governorship election, the campaign team of Senator Ademola Adeleke has said its next focus will be winning the governorship election in Lagos state as well as the 2023 presidential election.

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Sunday declared Sen Nurudeen Ademola Adeleke, the winner of the 2022 Osun State governorship election.

Adeleke of the PDP, polled 403,371 votes to defeat his closest rival and the incumbent governor of the state, Adegboyega Isiaka Oyetola of the All Progressives Congress (APC), who polled 375,027 votes.

” We are glad the people of Osun have spoken in clear terms with their votes. You can see that this is a clear-cut convincing victory that does not require any rerun. If it goes into re-run, the APC and Oyetola will perform the same fraud they did in 2018″.

” With Osun now secured, our next target will be Lagos state. Given his performance and disconnect from the people, i don’t see how Governor Sanwo-Olu will secure reelection. Infact, i will advise him to start preparing his handover note now for the incoming Governor, Olajide Adediran (Jandor)”.

Osun 2022: PDP Chieftain urges party to unite for Governorship Election

A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Hon. David Ayodele Asalu, has called for an end to the campaign of calumny targeted at governorship aspirant in the party, saying the action was a calculated attempt to weaken the party towards the forthcoming gubernatorial election in Osun State.

Hon. Asalu made the call in a statement he personally signed on Thursday, noting that those opposed to the candidature of Senator Nurudeen Ademola Adeleke “went too with the outright falsehood and blackmails they have employed in their push to stop him from contesting the party’s primary”.

The PDP chieftain, who blamed fifth columnists for the turn of events in the party, however, called on leaders of the opposition party across board to weigh the price of a fragmented party into the election and speak out against those with destructive mission.

“Those who want our Party (PDP) to fail in the upcoming election are busy spewing falsehoods against Senator Adeleke and ignite a crisis that will make it impossible for us to focus,” he said in the statement, adding that “This will never benefit anyone except for the marauders who are obviously working for the APC,” he stated.

Hon Asalu further enjoined PDP members to support any aspirant of their choice without causing acrimony, saying doing otherwise will be “a betrayal to the sacrifices of members and multitude of Osun people who daily anticipate the return of a PDP government.

“The upcoming election is not about an individual, and infact, our party, but the People of Osun who rely on our platform to take them out of the miserable conditions that the APC bad governance over the years had led them,” he added.

The PDP chieftain also called on five other aspirants in the party to speak out against the needless falsehoods and biles targeted at one of them, saying the move will convince larger members of the PDP that they do not encourage the shameful attitude of a professional blackmailer.

“We have to be careful not to play into the hands of the APC. They want to divide us and the only way to show they did not succeed is if we all reject the message of their agents in our midst, and come together irrespective of our difference,” Asalu noted.

Osun 2022: No amount of endorsement can save you from losing governorship election, PDP tells Oyetola

The opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Osun State has said that no amount of endorsement can save the State Governor, Gboyega Oyetola, from losing the governorship election slated for July 16, 2022.

The party made the comment in a statement by the Directorate of Media of Osun State Chapter of the PDP, Oladele Bamiji, on Tuesday night.

The Osun PDP stated that the governor should rather “face governance crookedly entrusted in his hands instead of window shopping for induced endorsements for his precarious second term ambition from unwilling members of the public, especially artisans, trade unions and other organizations.”

The party further wondered why “Governor Oyetola would think harassing different unions and organizations would save him from the looming electoral disgrace out of office come next year”.

The statement read, “The latest on the radar of Mr Oyetola’s shopped endorsements is the directive handed the State chapter of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) for another make-believe endorsement jamboree slated for Wednesday.

“Our concern on this waste of time calisthenics by Mr Oyetola and his confused endorsement shoopers is the unnecessary waste of state funds as report reaching us confirmed the governor as usual, has earmarked several millions of naira from Osun State scarce resources for the new past time of optical illusion by the governor and his gang of political nomads.

“While we sympathize with Mr Oyetola over his inability to showcase any reasonable stride in office since the last 3years, which could have patched up deficits in his ‘remote controlled’ image in office, we however warn that Mr Oyetola tread with caution in his desperation to make up for his lost hope, Osun PDP noted.

“Osun PDP is also not unmindful of unwillingness of most of the induced associations and their love for a better Osun State over momentary pleasure offered them by the lustful aliens and hardened treasury looters. Our great party will continue to appreciate the constant feedbacks and collaborative resolve to rescue Osun State for the good of all and in the interest of the good people of the State.

“The PDP understands the immeasurable importance of NURTW members in a troubled economy like ours, but such value would be better appreciated when it is not traded for a one day, flash in the pan peanuts against the general good of our people. This is why we will continue to hold our brothers in high esteem, whose means of livelihood is domiciled in that sector.

“The Governor can continue to shop around for endorsements in his inordinate desperation which to us underscores his increasing realization of his dead end ambition, but we urge our people to remain steadfastly courageous in their resolve to enthrone a government of their own through the people oriented platform of the PDP.

“Our NURTW members in the state can come and dance to the cosmetic melody in Osogbo on Wednesday, but they must not forget their source. Trading welfare of Pensioners, market men and women, teachers and all other bewildered components of the state is akin to straying away from the objectives and good tidings of the State’s founding fathers.

“Again, we want to warn passionately, that Mr Oyetola tread with caution. Any reckless fleecing of the State under whatever guise will bear consequences this time and the governor can take that for a joke at his own peril.

“As a sitting governor of 4years span, it is expected that his performance should be enough of endorsement as against scampering for non-existent acceptability. Mr Oyetola has been warned!”
