OSUN GOV. POLL: APGA, AAC, ZLP ADOPT SENATOR ADEMOLA ADELEKE, WARN INEC AGAINST DECLARING OSUN POLL INCONCLUSIVE

By: Wole Adedoyin

Three opposition political parties on Friday agreed to adopt the governorship candidate of the PDP, Senator Ademola Adeleke, as their consensus candidate for Saturday’s governorship election.

The concerned political parties also warned the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) against declaring the governorship election inconclusive saying INEC under the leadership of Mahmood Yakubu must keep to its promise of a transparent process.

According to a release jointly signed by them, the parties, Zenith Labour Party (ZLP), African Action Congress (AAC) and All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) said the decision of their governorship candidates to step down for Senator Ademola Adeleke showed that the larger interest of the people of Osun state matters most to them.

Parts of the statement read, “We, the three political parties urge our members all over Osun State and the good people in the state in general to take their destiny in their hands by voting for our adopted candidate, Senator Demola Adeleke for the position of governor of Osun State. This is to ensure PDP’s victory and to enable us to usher in a coalition government in Osun State, so that the state may be liberated from poverty, unemployment and insecurity.”

“Governor Gboyega Oyetola is a perfect example of arrogance in failure. His government is a certified failure which has brought unprecedented hardship, chaos, escalated insecurity and hopelessness in our state in the last three and half years.”

“We are worried that Osun State under the political administration of Governor Gboyega Oyetola is presently overwhelmed with rising negatives in the areas of unemployment, poverty, insecurity and other developmental indices owing to the absence of political will of the present administration to demonstrate quality leadership. We have compared economic indices of Gboyega Oyetola and the All Progressives Congress (APC) administrations and concluded that the ruling party has brought Osun State to endless tales of woes. Osun State has continued to deteriorate and the citizens have become numb and accustomed to bad economic news. Governor Gboyega Oyetola has failed in the areas of health, education, agriculture, rural development, basic infrastructure, employment opportunities etc.”

“Senator Ademola Adeleke is our consensus candidate and our hope. We won’t give up until we hear the final whistle because we are aware that some persons from the ruling party, who know that they are no longer enjoying the goodwill of Osun people, believe that they can only achieve their aim through rigging. But the truth is that regardless of whatever they want to do, we will confront them and we will deliver as Osun people. We will stand firm and we know that by the grace of God almighty, Senator Ademola Adeleke will emerge as Osun Governor. We are using this opportunity to tell Osun Electorate that, in an election such as this, you must be ready not just to vote, but to also defend your votes. We should defend our votes up to the collation centres.”

“We also condemn the APC government under the leadership of Governor Gboyega Oyetola for his refusal to approve the use of Freedom Park and Osogbo City Stadium for the mega rally of the state chapter of the People Democratic Party (PDP). The two properties belong to the Osun people and not APC; the public properties are being funded with Osun people’s money. It is, therefore, surprising that the people of Osun, who are members of the opposition party, are being denied the use of the public utilities.”

The statement further added that other programmes highlighted by Senator Ademola Adeleke for the development of Osun State, as contained in his campaign agenda, were in tandem with the core values of the three political platforms.

The concerned political parties said INEC must remain independent in discharging its constitutional mandate and provide a level-playing ground for all political parties.

The parties finally alerted the international community, security agencies, observers and other stakeholders on the expediency for stringent adherence to democratic ethos in the conduct of the election.

Very good, All the people in Osun including Obidient supporters in Osun state should come out and vote for Adeleke today.

Inconsequential parties that can't even have up to 10 votes bcoz they're not even sure of their respective nuclear families
