President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has assured the people of Osun State ,of adequate security during and after the governorship election coming up this Saturday across Osun State.
Tinubu gave the promise during the governorship campaign of the All Progressives Congress held in Osogbo, the Osun State capital on Thursday to formally present its candidate, Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji, for the Saturday election.
Represented by President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio, Tinubu said, ” let me assure all Osun indigenes that adequate security has been provided all over the state, to ensure that people come out in their numbers to cast their votes for the candidate of their choice without any fear or intimidation.
” Feel very free to cast your votes for the candidate of your choice. My advise however, is that you chose wisely because there is need to link Osun State to the centre. We are waiting for Osun to join us. I can assure you that nobody will molest you. You can only be molested in the social media and not during voting.”
A statement by Special Assistant on Media to the President of the Senate, Jackson Udom , further quoted Akpabio, saying” from the crowd here today, I am more than convinced that APC is the dominant party in Osun State. People like former governor and interim National chairman of our party, Pa Bisi Akande, former National secretary, Iyiola Omisore and Senator Fadahunsi are enough proof that we have what it takes to win this coming Saturday election.
“Let me, on behalf of Mr President thank the opposition parties in the state led by former governor and chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola, for queuing behind our candidate. It shows that we are a peaceful party and that is why even the leadership of the Accord party in the state, led by its chairman, have “Accordingly” endorsed our governorship candidate.
According to Akpabio, ” On a personal note, I am not impressed by the condition of roads from Ibadan to this state. Osun deserves more than this. Osun should be better than what we have now. Let me at this point, charge our incoming governor, AMBO to ensure that he transforms Osun State through the provision of quality infrastructure and delivery of true dividends of democracy from his very first day in office.
Those who delivered goodwill messages, charged party members and Osun people to cast their votes for the candidate of the party on Saturday.
