Adamawa State Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri has extended a hearty congratulations to Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke following his re-election, calling the outcome a decisive endorsement of the people’s will. In a statement released on Sunday by his Chief Press Secretary, Humwashi Wonosikou, Fintiri framed the victory as a resounding call for continuity, sound governance, and leadership that puts citizens first.
“Senator Ademola Adeleke has earned this victory, and I have every confidence he will keep his promise to transform Osun and uplift the lives of its people,” Fintiri said. The Adamawa governor’s words carried a tone of optimism, underscoring the belief that Adeleke’s second term will build on the foundation already laid.
Fintiri also took time to acknowledge President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, praising him for what he described as a steadfast commitment to democratic principles. “By refusing to interfere with the electoral process and ensuring the outcome reflected the people’s choice, the President has shown himself to be a true democrat,” he remarked. This nod to Tinubu’s conduct, Fintiri argued, was a vital signal for the health of Nigeria’s democracy, where respecting voter choices regardless of party lines should remain non-negotiable.
Looking ahead, Fintiri urged political actors and stakeholders in Osun to embrace the result, set aside rivalries, and rally behind Adeleke for the state’s advancement. He closed with a prayer for wisdom, strength, and divine guidance for the governor as he steers Osun into its next chapter.
