President Muhammadu Buhari has declared that Osun State must remain under the leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Buhari made this call in Osogbo, the state capital on Tuesday while addressing the party’s supporters at a mega rally for the governorship candidate of the party.
Alhaji Gboyega Oyetola is APC’s flag bearer – expected to succeed Rauf Aregbesola.
The President described Oyetola as the right man for the job while urging the electorate to vote in order to continue with the development witnessed in the last years of Governor Aregbesola.
“This is why you must all come out and vote for the APC on the 22 of September 2018,” Buhari urged.
“Osun must remain APC, Osun must continue on the path of progress, Osun must not allow the dark days to return.”
Similarly, the incumbent claims Oyetola would win the poll because his administration worked tirelessly to develop the state in the past eight years.
“We are winning the election of Saturday, September 22 by the grace of God and we are coming back to jubilate. Why must God support us? Because we have worked 24 hours of every single day of the 2922 days allowed by the constitution to serve the people of this state.
“Our party has done the impossible here, we have changed the face of Osun and for that reason and the will and power of God, we are returning Isiaka Adegboyega Oyetola on September 22 as the governor-elect and we are returning Benedict Oluwagboyega Alabi as the deputy governor-elect. Both of them will be sworn in on Tuesday, November 27.”
