The coordinator of Atiku Abubakar Support Organisation (ASO) in Kwara State, Barr. Oluwasegun Olawoyin has charged the leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to sustain the zeal with which they fought and won the Osun State governorship election.
Olawoyin while congratulating the Osun State governor-elect, Senator Ademola Adeleke over his victory at the poll, said that the outcome of the election had shown that when there is the will, there will be a way.
He noted with satisfaction that the outcome of the Osun gubernatorial election has demystified the incumbency factor in winning an election.
Olawoyin whose patriarch, the late Chief Josaiah Sunday Olawoyin was the Asoju Oba of Ede at the time when the patriarch of the Adelekes was the Balogun of Ede congratulated the people of the town over the emergence of their son as the new governor of the state.
The ASO coordinator enthused that the PDP’s presidential candidate, Alh Atiku Abubakar is an harbinger of good hope given the resounding success of the party in a major electoral contest in the south west after the emergence of presidential candidates for the political parties in the country.
“ The fact that APC with the incubemcy factor coupled with the support and influence of its presidential candidate who happens to be from the south west geo- political zone still lost a state considered as a safe zone to the PDP shows the zeal and commitment of the PDP leadership to breaking barriers in winning most states and the presidential election come 2023.
“ My appeal to our leaders across board is to sustain the zeal with which they prosecuted the Osun gubernatorial election. If we are able to do this, I have no doubt in my mind that victory is ours in the 2023 general elections,” Olawoyin added.
He described Adeleke’s victory as well deserved and thanked the people of the state for their belief in the PDP and its candidate.
Olawoyin also praised the security agents for their patriotism and the Independent National Electoral Commision (INEC) for being an unbiased empire.
He commended the members of the National Assembly for enacting a well thought out electoral Act which he noted has dealt with the issue of multiple voting and all forms of electoral manipulations.
