Governor Ademola Adeleke has called on Osun State voters to reject the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the August 15 governorship election, describing the poll as a crucial decision on the state’s future.
In a statement posted on his official X account on Thursday, the incumbent governor and Accord Party candidate urged residents to support his re-election bid, warning against what he described as a return to the hardships experienced under previous APC administrations.
Adeleke alleged that past APC governments subjected civil servants to economic hardship through the payment of half salaries and poor welfare policies, adding that his administration has prioritised workers’ welfare and good governance.
“We must never go back to those dark days,” the governor said, urging eligible voters to vote for the Accord Party to sustain what he called the state’s progress.
He also appealed to residents to protect their mandate at the polls, insisting that the election offers an opportunity to consolidate the achievements of his administration.
Osun governorship election is expected to be keenly contested, with political parties intensifying campaigns across the state on August 15.
