I Will Not Disappoint You – Adeleke Tells Osun Residents After Winning 

Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, has promised to consolidate his achievements, correct his mistakes and deliver better governance after winning a second term in office.

Adeleke made the pledge on Sunday after the Independent National Electoral Commission declared him winner of the August 15 governorship election.

“As you have trusted me again for the second term in office, I will not disappoint you. To serve you better, I will reinforce my strong points and correct my errors under my renewed five-point agenda,” he said.

The Accord Party candidate dedicated his victory to Osun residents, thanking them for what he described as their resilience and commitment to democracy.

“I deeply appreciate your resilience, your strong will, and your unwavering commitment to democracy,” Adeleke said.

He also extended an olive branch to his opponents, declaring, “In this race, there is no victor, no vanquished. I extend my olive branch to my co-contestants. I am the governor of all Osun State people.”

Adeleke polled 511,067 votes to defeat APC’s Bola Oyebamiji, who scored 444,815 votes. He won 19 of the state’s 30 local government areas, while Oyebamiji secured 11.

The governor, who won his first term in 2022 on the PDP platform, later moved to the Accord Party ahead of the 2026 election.
