Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke has urged the people of the state to ignore the outcome of the governorship elections in Edo and Ondo States.
This is as Governor Adeleke charged them to focus on the state.
Adeleke made this statement in a speech delivered on the sideline of a novelty match marking the second anniversary of his administration in office.
The match which was between the state executive council and the Osun State House of Assembly ended in a 1-0 tally in favour of the executive.
Governor Adeleke said his administration has been doing wonders and the people of Osun should be proud of what they have achieved within the space of two years in office.
Adeleke stated that he is the first Osun Governor who hasn’t abandoned previous administrations’ projects, and believes that governance is a continuous process.
He said, “I want to tell the people of Osun State to ignore what happened in Edo, Ondo, and what will happen in Ekiti. Let’s focus on our own Osun.
“With the way things are going, nobody will take this mandate from us. They cheated us in 2018, but I went back to God, and He told me to wait for my time, this is my time, and we have been doing wonders during my tenure.
“It is not easy to defeat an incumbent’, but they were surprised.
“The only way to appreciate the electorate and Osun people is to give them the dividend of democracy.
‘I’m the first Osun Governor who has not abandoned previous administrations’ projects. We must know that the Osun people own everything.
“Why abandon projects just because you have a new administration? Governance is a continuous process, and we didn’t withdraw any projects from contractors. Instead, we asked them to continue with quality work.”
