The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has tasked the newly elected Osun State local government chairmen and councillors to be guided by Governor Ademola Adeleke’s vision so that the people at the grassroots will continue to enjoy the dividends of his people-first policy direction in governance.
The party stated this while congratulating Governor Ademola Adeleke, the Government and people of Osun State for the successful conduct and outcome of the Saturday, February 22, 2025 Local Government Area election in the State.
The national publicity secretary of PDP, Hon Debo Ologunagba said the success and outcome of the free, fair, transparent and credible Local Government election conducted by the Osun State Independent Electoral Commission (OSSIEC) is a resounding triumph of democracy, the Rule of Law, Constitutional Principle of true federalism and the Will of the people of Osun State over the All Progressives Congress (APC) anti-democratic forces that sought to illegally and forcefully take control of their State.”
The party hailed the people of Osun State for the courage in asserting their sovereignty and Constitutional right by coming out enmasse to vote in the election despite the vicious attempt by the APC to intimidate them and subvert the democratic process.
It further asserted that its sweeping victory across the 30 local government areas in the state in spite of the machinations of the APC demonstrated PDP’s political supremacy in Osun State, the South West geo-political zone and across the nation.
“Moreover, the PDP’s overwhelming victory in the election comes as the people’s response to the outstanding achievements of Governor Adeleke in his massive delivery of life-enhancing infrastructural, citizen empowerment and human capital projects in all critical sectors including power, healthcare, education, road construction, water resources, agriculture and food production among others in line with the manifesto and policy thrust of the PDP.
“The PDP congratulates and charges the newly elected Osun State Local Government Chairmen and Councillors to be guided by Governor Adeleke’s vision so that the people at the grassroots will continue to enjoy the dividends of his people-first policy direction in governance,’’ Ologunagba noted.
