Osoba said his coming to Imeko-Afon council was like homecoming and recalled that it was the administration which brought electricity to the region.

The veteran journalist-turned politician said he encouraged Governor Abiodun to emulate his (Osoba) administration, which he said Abiodun had keyed into and paved the way for the success of his (Abiodun) administration, adding that he can vouch for the competence of the governor.

Osoba charged party members to work towards the success of the party at the poll, and also encouraged the electorate to vote for APC candidates of APC in the 2023 general elections.
