Adeleke Persuades Osun PDP To Forgive Members Who Worked Against Him During Election

Governor Ademola Adeleke, has enjoined the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Osun chapter to reintegrate factions within the party who worked against his 2022 governorship ambition.

Adeleke made the appeal while speaking with the party’s leadership during a stakeholders meeting at the State Secretariat in Osogbo.

The meeting was held to nominate a replacement for the late Soji Adagunodo who was the Southwest Vice-Chairman of the party.

“We have to support each other to move Osun State forward. We need to honour ourselves because before we got here, we knew what we faced. God supported me during the gubernatorial race,” the governor declared.

“All those that refused to support us within the party, let us forgive them. They had reasons why they refused to support us, that is democracy. But let’s allow them back to the party.

“They have repented and we must be after their progress within the party. They have come to terms that God is on our side.”

Adeleke also urged aggrieved members who are yet to get appointment from his administration to exercise patience, stressing that plans are underway to change Osun State from civil servant state to industrial hub.

Earlier, the Osun PDP chairman, Sunday Bisi, announced that the party leadership has agreed to nominate Kamoru Ajisafe as the candidate to replace the late Soji Adagunodo as the Southwest Vice-Chairman of PDP who was an aide to former governor Olagunsoye Oyinlola.
