EKO HOT BLOG reports that the Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdulrosheed Adewale, has dumped the Governor of Osun State, Gboyega Oyetola, who lost his re-election bid in Saturday’s governorship poll.
Oba Abdulrosheed Adewale congratulated the governor-elect, Ademola Adeleke of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), asking people to cooperate with him.
Oluwo’s message to Adeleke came at a time Gov Oyetola is still contemplating going to the tribunal to challenge the outcome of the election that returned Adeleke as the winner.
Recalls that the monarch had before the election promised, “I am confident of delivering 90,000 votes for Governor Oyetola.”
But, the outcome of the election was far below the Oba’s expectations as the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) lost to the opposition PDP.
In a statement on Friday, Oluwo commended Adeleke for his “tenacity, courage and commitment” to his goal, praying for divine wisdom and understanding to effectively manage the state.
He enjoined every patriot of the state to cooperate with the governor-elect so that Osun would continue to be great in the face of global economic hardship.
The statement signed by his Press Secretary, Alli Ibraheem, and posted on his social media handle, called for collaborative efforts with technocrats, whose inputs, he said, would do the state a lot of good.
“I congratulate the Osun State Governor-elect, Senator Ademola Adeleke on his victory at the keenly contested poll. He has demonstrated an uncommon courage and, tenacity to have survived many hurdles. His life is a lesson for many aspiring youths.
