Indigenes and residents of Osun State will on Saturday, 22 September 2018 go to the polling units across the state to elect a successor of the incumbent Governor, Rauf Aregbesola, whose tenure will end in the next 69 days.About 48 candidates from various political parties are jostling for the Number One seat in the state.
Although some analysts may have predicted a tough contest, those who read in-between lines have said that Aregbesola’s sterling performance in his eight-year occupation of the power stool, must have made victory a fait accompli for the Candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Gboyega Isiaka Oyetola.
Although the primary that led to Oyetola’s emergence was stormy and ruffled some feathers, the skirmishes that arose as a result of the outcome of the exercise appear to have been contained.
Party’s ultimate victory
Some members of the APC who contested the primary with the former Chief of Staff to Governor Aregbesola, but lost, who also nursed a feeling of discontent have since allowed the sleeping dog to lie. They have also resolved to close ranks for the party’s ultimate victory on Saturday.
Oyetola himself, being a fair player, who strongly believes in the saying that “a tree does not make a forest”, has since reached out to many of them and has also succeeded in winning them back to the fold.
However, observers said that those who have refused to accept the olive branch being presented to them are in the minority and may not have the capacity to muster enough votes that can stop Oyetola.
An analyst, who expressed the optimism, said that no matter how tough the contest may seem, the APC candidate would emerge winner.
For eight years, Oyetola worked with the out-going governor as Chief of Staff. He was part and parcel of the government in Osun until his voluntary resignation recently to enable him pursue his ambition.
Indeed, at rallies and consultations, continuity and consolidation has been the message of the candidate. An analyst said: “Should this message be bought by the electorate, many of whom rate highly the Aregbesola’s reign, it may translate into huge votes for the APC candidate.”
At a recent interview, the candidate spoke about his drive, saying: “Our core agenda is continuity and consolidation. The six integral action plan of the outgoing administration has transformed the Osun landscape and changed the face of infrastructure in the state.”
Oyetola is also seen as a perfect successor to Aregbesola by many keen followers of political events in the state going by the the enormous influence he wields in the current administration and to keep the machinery of state moving at same tempo and direction.

Adeleke we know!

We don't need someone who will come and pay modulated salary to Osun people

How & when will Osun State be free from these huge debts?


Aregbesola, you will surely be remembered in Osun for your gross misuse of state funds in addition to the daylight robbery of our people’s common wealth.

1. Where is the Osun State Airport with all the billions of Osun State money invested?

2. What are the achievement or benefit of the Opon’imo that make Osun students performed woefully in the last National exams?

3. The amount wasted in changing the state name from Osun State to the useless ‘State of Osun’ without any benefit to the masses.

4. You started various roads construction across the state, all now known as ‘abandoned projects’

5. You use the state resources to build the ‘TALLEST DRUM’ in the world. Please what is the benefit?

6. Civil servants in the state and indeed the general masses are now is a state of abject poverty due to the ‘Modulated / Half salary’ your government is paying.

7. Pensioners are dying daily from hunger as you refused the veterans their monthly dues.

Oyetola was part of all these mismanagement and yet want to continue the destruction projects?

I leave the good people of Osun to decide their future by electing whoever they prefer among the candidates.

Good luck on your choice.

Osun a dara ooo.

There is no hope for ileri alangba
