Ademola Adeleke, former senator and governorship aspirant on
the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Osun, says he is
committed to rescuing the state from bad governance.
In a statement, his campaign organisation quoted him as
saying this after he was cleared by the PDP to contest for the party’s ticket
in March.
The former senator said his ambition to govern the state is
“people-driven”.
“My ambition to govern Osun state is people-driven. We are
not afraid to face the delegates at the primary and the people of Osun state at
the general election,” he said.
“I urge my colleagues
to take the contest like a sporting race.
“As for me, I repeat, we are not enemies, we want to serve,
our ambition should not be a do or die affair. Let the delegates decide the
candidate, let the voters elect the governor.
“We must be mindful of our actions as we belong to the same
party and family. We must be getting set for a united front to defeat our
common enemy.”
Adeleke was PDP’s governorship candidate in 2019 but he lost
to Gboyega Oyetola, the current governor of Osun, in a keenly contested
election.
