Emerging report indicates that Senator Ademola Adeleke, the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the Osun State governorship election, has won his polling unit.
Adeleke polled 154 votes to defeat Gboyega Oyetola of the All Progressives Congress and other candidates at the Abogunde/Sagba ward 2, unit 9 in Ede.
The people of Ede are reportedly happy about this development and are hoping that Senator Ademola Adeleke emerged the victor after the election.
Senator Ademola believes he will coast to victory by an overwhelming margin.
Speaking with newsmen after exercising his civic responsibility, the Senator stressed that election in Osun should not have gone otherwise because of the deep interest of international community in the process.
“This election must remain a reference point for any election in Nigeria, the position of international community is that the process must be free, fair and credible.
“Although there are pockets of skirmish before today, we are resolute in our mission to rescue the state from looters; we can not be intimidated in any way,” he said.
Adeleke, however, accused the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, of trying to manipulate the process electronically though compromised devices.
Speaking on the impact of his family pedigree as leverage in the contest, Adeleke said his family history of integrity and humanitarian service would work for him.
He described his late brother, Isiaka as a master in the game of politics, whom he claimed he learnt a lot from in terms of governance and leadership.
