Adeleke rallies Osun indigenes to support Ajayi

Indigenes of Osun State who reside in Ondo State have declared support for the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the November 16 governorship election, Mr Agboola Ajayi.

The development came on Tuesday, a few days before the forthcoming poll as the political parties continued their campaigns.

Adeleke, who was in Ondo State to join the PDP candidate in the campaign tour to some local governments, was hosted by the Osun indigenes in Akure, the state capital.

Addressing the crowd, the governor charged his kinsmen to work for the victory of the PDP in the forthcoming poll, asking them to go out on election day and vote for the PDP and stay with their votes.

He said, “All the things they didn’t do in 12 years, we have done in two years in Osun.

“The election has come, go and tell them that we are behind your ‘governor’ (Ajayi).

“We have brought the light to Ondo State. If we trust in God, everything is possible.

“Agboola Ajayi has the experience, up to the grassroots. He would repeat the wonders in Osun in Ondo. Let’s go back to our communities that Agboola is the next governor of this state.

“I’m glad to be here to support my brother, Agboola Ajayi, all the systems are working in Osun and we want to replicate it in Ondo here. PDP is the only progressive party. Go and vote and stay with your votes.”

Ajayi, who expressed gratitude to the Osun people for their support, promised to deliver dividends of democracy to the entire people living in Ondo State if elected.

The Chairman of the Osun State indigenes in Ondo State, Mr Kehinde Ayinla, stated that their support for Ajayi stemmed from his understanding of the challenges of the people and the state.

He assured the PDP candidate of massive votes from Osun indigenes living across the 18 local government areas of the state.
