Governor Ifeanyi Okowa has reacted to Sen. Ademola Adeleke’s victory at the just-concluded Osun governorship election, saying it was a good omen for the party.
Adeleke beat the current governor, Adegboyega Oyetola, and other contenders with over 400,000 votes across all local government areas.
On his verified account, Okowa tweeted, “I congratulate the people of Osun State and my brother, Senator Ademola Adeleke, the @OfficialPDPNig candidate, for a decisive victory at yesterday’s polls.
“Senator Adeleke’s victory has shown the entire country that the PDP is ready, willing, and able to rescue Nigeria in 2023.
“It not only sets the momentum for the future, but it also highlights the need for unity within our ranks.
“This is why, as we prepare for the arduous task ahead, I pray that our party can sustain this drive into next year, as we work to elect Alhaji Atiku Abubakar as the next President of Nigeria.
“Congratulations to the people of Osun! Congratulations to my brother, Senator @AAdeleke_01! Congratulations to our great party, the PDP.”
