2027: ‘No turning back’ — Adeleke predicts landslide victory

Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, has expressed confidence that the Accord Party will emerge victorious in the August 15 governorship election, saying the people of the state have embraced his administration’s style of governance and are ready to sustain it.

Adeleke made the remarks in a statement posted on his official social media page on Monday while appreciating residents for what he described as their overwhelming support for his campaign.

According to the governor, the continued backing from the people of Osun reflects their confidence in his administration, adding that he does not take the trust reposed in him for granted.

“I appreciate the overwhelming love and support the people of Osun State continue to show our campaign. I do not take your trust for granted,” Adeleke said.

The governor criticised previous administrations, alleging that they used poverty as a political tool instead of implementing policies that improved the welfare of the people.

“For too long, our people endured leaders who weaponised poverty instead of empowering the people. Today, Osun is witnessing the difference that purposeful, people-centred governance can make,” he stated.

Adeleke insisted that residents had already witnessed the impact of his administration and urged them to sustain what he described as the state’s progress.

“There is no turning back. Together, we will keep moving Osun forward. I’m confident ACCORD will win August 15,” he added.

The governor also urged his supporters to mobilise voters ahead of the election, saying, “Tell your neighbours: No shaking, Imole is coming back.”
