Osun 2022: Why Oyetola Will Win The Election. by Okerenla: 3:56pm On Nov 06, 2021
Osun 2022 and endorsement galore for Oyetola

By Adebayo Adedeji

If teachers, road transport workers, NLC, TUC, babalojas, iyalojas, Christian priests, Imams, and organised indigenous religion practitioners endorse you for re-election, you do not need to ache your head further, for God has really answered your prayer. You only need to vocalise your Amens to claim it. This should be the case for the incumbent governor of Osun State, Gboyega Oyetola, whose re-election bid has become a project enlivened and promoted by all the movers and shakers in the state.The endorsements keep pouring in daily. The organised labour unions represented by the Nigeria Union of Teachers, Nigeria Labour Union, Trade Union Congress, Nigeria Union of Pensioners, etc, have, on different occasions, thrown their weight behind the 2nd Term ambition of the man many have described as not only a performing governor, but also a governor with human face.


The latest in the endorsement galore is that of the National Union of Road Transport Workers, NURTW. But as expected, the cynics and the rejected politicians are struggling terribly to foul-mouth the road transport workers' open display of love for the Oyetola government. The invidious politicians who, in the years past, purchased premium slots in the newspapers and Television to broadcast a similar endorsement, are commissioning fiction mercenaries to downplay effects powerful endorsements, like that of the NURTW and other groups, would have on the gubernatorial campaign of Oyetola.

What is endorsement and what causal effect does it have on election?

Fernanda Leite Lopez, in "The Tuesday Advantage of Politicians Endorsed by American Newspapers" published in The B.E. Journal of Economic Analysis & Policy, describes an Endorsement as a formal way of signaling and mobilising group support for a candidate. It, he stresses, is a real commitment, rather than an empty statement, that promises concrete actions by groups and members. It is an essential part of campaigning as it can add credibility and validate a candidacy. It improves a candidate's reach and encourages voter turnout for him. It gives positive optics to a campaign. It is on record that the May 2013 endorsement of Rauf Aregbesola by the NURTW improved his public rating and encouraged a battalion of opposition party leaders to join the All Progressives Congress ahead of the 2014 gubernatorial contest. Olagunsoye Oyinlola and Isiaka Adeleke, two former governors of the state and PDP chieftains, are ready examples of those who joined APC because the public perception was favourable to the ruling APC. Nobody wanted to be left behind in Siberia. Everyone wanted to identify with the winning team. The bandwagon effect: that is what an endorsement does.

The public, definitive and stated preference of Oyetola by influential unions like NLC, TUC, NUT, NURTW, will boost the governor's chances in the next year's election. There is a vast body of literature that shows a strong and positive relationship between votes and received endorsements, including Erickson (1976), Coombs (1981), Bullock (1984), Lieske (1989), and Krebs (1998).

In Osun State, two blocs determine votes: the Formal workers and Informal workers. The Formal workers are the government workers ( active workers and pensioners).

The Informal workers, in this context, are workers in the structured and unstructured private employments. They are the artisans, the road union workers. The Iyalojas, the babalojas. What shaped the opinion of the Formal bloc? Timely payment of their salary and pensions. What do the Informal workers want? Projects. Road projects. Empowerment programmes. Infrastructure that would ease stress of plying their trade. Chief Bisi Akande lost the Formal, but had the Informal. He lost his re-election in 2003 to Olagunsoye Oyinlola. Oyinlola seemingly had the Formal but lost the Informal, he again lost his re-election to Rauf Aregbesola, a pan-Osun candidate in 2007, even though Aregbesola was a debutant in Osun politics at the time. Aregbesola, in his first term, had the two blocs in 2014 and won his second term election convincingly, notwithstanding the federal resources deployed by the opposition PDP. Unfortunately, Aregbesola faltered along the way. He lost the Formal but had the informal. Aregbesola's inability to sunstain an amitie with the workers, pensioners and their unions, made the 2018 election strenuous for his party's candidate, Gboyega Oyetola. The governing party did not only lose bunch of his votes in its strongholds, it also lost in Ijeshaland, Aregbesola's acclaimed place of origin.

The party was defeated in four of the six local governments in Ijeshaland to obtain 46,140 votes as against PDP's 48,859 votes. In the same Ijeshaland in 2014, APC had cleared all the six LGs, obtaining 65,039 votes as opposed to PDP's 36,488 votes. The 2018 election was a definite resentment to Aregbesola who, immediately after his re-election, chose to experiment with the welfare of the civil servants and pensioners by activating a modulated salary, otherwise known as half-salary. As at the period the 2018 election was conducted, the Aregbesola government was owing workers and pensioners close to 30 months of their entitlements! This impacted on the negative rating of APC.

But today, the story has changed. Oyetola has got both the Formal and Informal blocs. His performance is as profound as it is inspiring. In the last 35 months, over N150 billion has been released to settle pension and salary commitments. Regardless of the debt burden bequeathed to it by Aregbesola government, debt amounting to over N200 billion as at inauguration in November 2019, Oyetola government continues to steady the state to economic prosperity. Of the debt, the current government has offset about N70 billion of it. With the financial challenges occasioned by the heavy deductions, the state, since last November, has begun to implement the N30,000 Minimum Wage. The civil servants are happy. So also the pensioners.

As the government is amenable to the demands of the civil servants and pensioners, so it is closing the Infrastructure deficit. Moro-Yakoyo-Ipetumodu-Ife-Ibadan expressway, first constructed in 1976, has been rehabilitated. The project, described as the biggest construction project in the history of Ife-North Local Government, was done in a record time of nine (9) months, in line with the principle of the administration that completion time for all projects should not exceed 10 months. The 25km Ede-Ara-Ejigbo has been done. 13km Ada-Igbajo road has been done. The 4.1k Ilesha Roundabout-Sabo-Akure Expressway has been done. And according to Oluremi Omowaiye, the state's Commissioner for Works, 10 roads, alongside the 0.64km Olaiya Flyover, would be ready for inauguration by end of the year. Again, in the coming weeks, contracts for reconstruction of six networks of roads in Ifeland would be awarded.

In equal breath, the government has constructed/rehabilitated primary health centres in nearly all the 332 political wards in the state. The contract for the last batch of 17 health centres has been awarded. This is in addition to the nearly completed 120-bed project in the State Specialist Hospital at Asubiaro, Osogbo.

The Osun Food Support Scheme, inaugurated in April of this year, is another social intervention programme of the Oyetola administration that is connecting it to the people of the state. The scheme, targeted at the most vulnerable citizens of the state, is aimed at improving the well-being of the beneficiaries. Since take-off of the scheme in April, 210,000 beneficiaries have been covered. And the government is not slowing down. The government, according to the Commissioner in charge of the project, Olalekan Badmus, is planning to increase its reach so more citizens can be serviced. Badmus similarly assured the citizens of the government's commitment to sustain the project. He also indicated the government's plan to initiate a monthly cash-support progamme for the senior citizens and widows in the state. The programme would be code-named "Itoju Agba, Itoju Opo."

Oyetola's exemplary leadership is reflected in every facet of governance in the state, including in the traditional institution and local government administration. He believes communal peace is much needed if the drive of his government to attract investors is to have any headway. It took the leadership of Oyetola to settle the 34-year-old obaship tussle in Ikire in March this year. Similarly in April this year, the Owaloko of Iloko-Ijesha tussle was resolved by Oyetola, 9 years after it was declared vacant at the transition of Oba Oladele Olashore in June 2012.

In the words of Prince Adebayo Adeleke (Banik), the Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs in the state, " It took the God-given sagacity of Governor Oyetola to restore peace into the Apomu Kingdom, leading to the installation of Oba Kayode Afolabi. Governor Oyetola has also resolved the issue of Alara of Ara in Egbedore Local Government which began at the exit of Oba Sunmonu Omolaoye Ekundayo in February, 2010. The tussle sorrouding the Apetumodu of Ipetumodu stool of Ife North, which began in November 2017, has also been put to rest by this government. We have been able to create this harmonious relationship because the governor is deliberate about bringing a lasting peace in the state. He addresses issues without political bias and fixation."

The achievements so far are what have endeared Oyetola to the people of the state. The acheivemnts are the reason for the floodgate of endorsements currently turning the stomach of the naysayers and detractors. The achievements in the last 35 months, no doubt, would speak glowingly for him in the next year's gubernatorial election. Governor Oyetola has worked to deserve a 2nd Term in office. And by God's grace and overwhelming support of the people of Osun State, he will get it. The trending endorsements -- the public display of affection for his person and government -- are just icing on the cake. No foul-mouthing can stop an idea whose time has come.

Oyetola will never pray to have Adeleke contesting against him cos he knows Adeleke is a big threat to him. Instead of you people to showcase with pictorial evidence what the current governor has achieved so far for people to judge his performance, you're saying he will win. With the current hardship in the country, any APC governor that is unable to deliver dividends of democracy will definitely find it difficult winning a second term.

NEWS_PDP Will Oust Oyetola Come 2022- Hon Sunday Bisi November 6, 2021.

By Ayobami Agboola, Osogbo

The Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Osun State, Honourable Sunday Bisi has said that with the successful conclusion of the recent party’s state and national congresses, the end of the APC and Governor Gboyega Oyetola’s tenure was non-negotiable.

Bisi boasted that there was no doubt about the fact that the people of the state have seen the Peoples Democratic Party as a better alternative because of what he described as “poor performance of the ruling All Progressives Congress in the last ten years”.

He noted that for the past three years no any tangible project could be pointed out to by the present administration describing the three years of Governor Gboyega Oyetola as “three years of wasteful resources”.

The PDP Chairman made these known while fielding questions from CityMirrorNews correspondent in his office, in Osogbo, Osun State Capital.

Sunday Bisi, Osun PDP Chairman

“We had a successful convention in Abuja and all of us were together. So talking about any rift again. We are now one big united family in PDP in Osun and in Nigeria. There is no rift in our party now, all those things have been settled and they are gone.

“All issues concerning Osun PDP have been settled by the grace of God and decisions taken at the national convention. The Congresses held in Osun, which were earlier passed by the National working Committee, were also ratified at the national convention, the highest decision making level of the party.

“I can tell you for free that Osun PDP is now one big family. All components of the party from bottom to top are all working together as we speak. All members of national assembly under the banners of our party are all working together with me to move the party forward.

“We are going to defeat APC in the coming gubernatorial election in the state. We are going to rescue the people of Osun State. I want to urge the people of Osun to please continue to endure because it remain just a year.

Three years of wasteful resources, even the projects they inherited from Aregbesola, they have never done anything on it. The Ilesa Garage , Dele yessir road, they have been on that road for the past ten years .

“Oyetola was there as one of those who bastardized Osun State in all the years of APC misrule. He was there when Pensioners and workers were owed 33months without any sign of paying the the people concerned. So he has no basis to exonerate himself from whatever destruction his party perpetrated against the state.

“The bridge at Olaiya is another disaster being foisted on Osun by Oyetola and the Apc administration contrary to what was promoted in the media with all sorts of graphics. Osun State cannot afford to continue with such a fraudulent Government.

“The bridge they are constructing is just a one way bridge. We have never seen that kind of bridge in our lives. It had never happened in any state. We had traveled far and wide I mean in this country, I have gone to so many places, I have never seen this kind of bridge.

Speaking on the recent Endorsements by various groups, Osun PDP Chairman said: ” It’s because there is nothing concrete to show as achievements that why Governor Gboyega Oyetola is begging People to come and endorse him.

He further said, ” For good three years Oyetola doesn’t have things that he could show as his achievements nothing to showcase for the person who have been in the Government for three years.

“We’re not feeling intimidated by his endorsement at all. You are in Osun State through out last week when the pensioners were protesting the non payment of their pension Arrears , won’t that affect him in the Election? You are talking about the people that have been induced to come and stagemanage a kind of endorsement is that one endorsement”. He questioned

“Forget about this induced Endorsements that we are having here and there. Where were those people in 2018 when he was floored. He is going to be defeated again flat . He would be defeated hands down

“What happened in 2018 cannot happen again, because we’re going to defeat him with wide margin. You can only rig when you’re popular . This time around we would win them with wide margin, he concluded.

Speaking on the state of security in the state, Hon Bisi said: ” There’s nothing like peace in Osun State under this APC administration if we have to tell ourselves the truth.

There are incessant armed robbery attacks. Iragbiji, Okuku, Ila, Iree, everywhere, there is no bank that’s functioning there now. Look at what our people in Osun central are facing presently whereby they cannot do any banking transaction unless they come to Osogbo. Which kind of peace do we call that?

“Up till now, the governor and his men have not told us the location of the security helicopter which was purchased by tax payers money in Osun and which should have been deployed against dare devil armed robbers and banditry that have ravaged the state.We are using this medium to ask them to provide the helicopter they use our tax payers to procure.” He concluded.

On the rumoured defection of party members to the ruling APC, Hon Bisi posited that no right thinking person will leave PDP and go and join APC in the state.

“No one with his senses will leave PDP for APC. The party that’s in disarray. As we’re speaking now, we have two party Chairmen . Alhaji Abdulrasak Salinsile and Prince Gboyega Famodun they are both laying claim to the Chairmanship position in the state.”

When asked if PDP was still strong enough to defeat APC come 2022, Hon Bisi insisted, he said: “The last time after the exit of former Governor Isiaka Adeleke, PDP presented Senator Ademola Adeleke for senatorial Election and we won with margin. We won nine out of the ten local governments when Aregbesola was the sitting Governor of the state.

“And the last Gubernatorial election in 2018 , Senator Ademola Adeleke contested again against Oyetola, the incumbent, and he defeated him at the first ballot before the inconclusive thing was introduced. Something we had never heard before.

We defeated them that time and President Muhammad Buhari said PDP was defeated in Osun through the use of remove control. So, we are virile, we are able , we are agile and I’m promising you that comes July 16 we are going to floor APC in the next Governorship election”. He concluded.

Anybody praying for Oyetola to return is out of his mind! He did not win the election that brought him to power in the first tenure and there is no single achievement record for him. Rather, he has been making life hard for the citizens of the state and has more plans to make life harder if he returns.

I don't have any problem with Oyetola, but I don't support usually support people (especially executives) for a second term. Besides, Oyetola is using a stolen mandate. Apart from regular payment of salary, he hasn't done anything tangible. Some poster up there said Oyetola will easily win the election if PDP field Oyetola, that's laughable! Had Adeleke not defeated him before? Even Oyetola knows that Adeleke is the biggest threat to him if they both contest against each other.

I guess part of the good work that doe not need pictorial evidence is the osogbo to ifon Road. More than 8 years now the roads have not been fixed. The other day Ooni was complaining of the bad roads in Ife. You know why Ede people voted massively for the PDP in 2018? It's because of the bad roads in Ede, at a point 80% of the roads were not motorable.

Apart from the fact the Adeleke's are from Ede, the people believe he was the only one that could help fix the roads and that he will not want to spoil the good name of the family.

Truth be told, i prefer Oyetola to Aregbesola anytime any day, at least he his not collecting loan up and down and managing the meager state budget well, due to the frivolities by Aregbe(May God judge him). He his doing the projects he can and finishing them so that there will be no abandoned project later.

But in a free and fair election in Osun today between Adeleke and Oyetola. Adeleke will beat him. People still feel cheated because of the stolen mandate, so this time people will not give them a chance for rerun.

You are being economical with the truth. You claim Oyetola has not done any road in Ede. What of the 25km Ede-Ara-Ejigbo road?


Again, you hype the Adelekes as if they are the only family in Ede. Do you know Matrix Energy? Do you know Ambassador Adejare Bello? These are two of many personalities in Ede that are equally loved by the people. The 2019 senatorial election result in Ede, which is the only election under Oyetola, has proven that APC is penetrating the PDP stronghold. That APC won Osun west senatorial election in 2019 is an indication that the Adelekes are losing the grip on the electorate in their stronghold. The election held barely 5 months after Oyetola's inauguration when he was just settling down is a pointer that Ademola Adeleke will find it difficult now that his government has rehabilitated more than 20 health centres in Ede.

Are you aware some of the grassroots mobilisers helping the Adelekes win election have joining APC? Do you know Zobo Lotto? Do you know Imam? These were folks that worked for Ademola the last time. Today, they are with IleriOluwa.

Adeleke used his influence to impose him on others as the candidate then. Like you said, he was Adeleke's campaign director, why would Adeleke not have supported him. Can he go head to head with Ogunbiyi? Even Adeleke only beat Ogunbiyi with seven or eight votes after a lot of abracadabra. PDP might have won if Ogunbiyi was the Senatorial candidate then 'cause he's also from Iwo area (Ayedire Local Government). Akogun Oyewumi is a feather weight politician, his influence doesn't transcend beyond his local government.

I did not say no road has been done in Ede, infact the APC government has patched some of the roads due to paucity of fund to do a total rehabilitation of the roads. What I meant was that a contributing factor to the low vote he got in Ede was due to the bad roads and the neglect of Ede by Aregbesola government which Oyetola was part of.

Concerning Adejare Bello and Matrix energy none of them can compare to the Adeleke popularity in Ede. Adejare could only deliver is unit during the guber election, at least he should have won his ward for APC.

Concerning the decamping issue, what is the assurance that those people will not go back to Ademola when election is close. Am not a card carrying member of APC so I don't know if any influential APC members have decamped to PDP too.

Also I believe why PDP lost the senatorial seat has been explained by another user above.

this clueless propaganda doesn’t hold any water again and again. Post another propaganda. Senator Ademola Adeleke has gone to US to have another degree in Criminology and justice from Atlanta Georgia metropolitan University. Oyetola should just be preparing for his handover notes. Now Oyetola want to demolish the mega schools Baba Afusa built with Osun State tax payers money.

1. Did Ademola Adeleke obtain HND before ND like one of your leaders in Osun PDP, Gani Olaoluw Aseejere?

Ademola in the attached video some 4 years ago claimed he was a specialist in Criminology, blablabla. So he only went to school in 2019 to obtain a Diploma, not even a Degree in Criminology, and you are beginning to stake him in your mind as the next governor? Where is his WAEC result?

Can you post Ademola Adeleke CV here for others to see? What is his professional experience? Does he have boardroom experience? Osun needs a serious professional in the mode of Oyetola, not a nondescript loafer like Senator F9 pending pending.
