Osun State Governor, Senator Ademola, Adeleke, on Tuesday denied reports from the African Democratic Congress (ADC) helped him to win re-election, declaring that he had no electoral deal or alignment with the party during and after the governorship election.
A statement by his spokesperson, Olawale Rasheed, said the ADC was never part of any deal that culminated in his Saturday’s electoral victory.
Adeleke, who attributed his victory to the resilience and commitment of the people to his second term ambition, contended he had no pact with the ADC.
The statement reads, “Governor Adeleke who again credited God and Osun people for his re-election win said the ADC was never part of the rainbow coalition that canvassed and supported his battle for last Saturday’s election, commending political partners who sacrificed to make the aspirations of Osun people a reality.
“I commend political partners who went all out to make Saturday a victory day for all Osun people. But we must clarify for the sake of history that ADC was never part of the alliance.
“Now that the election is over, I am a governor of all Osun people irrespective of political groups, religion or race”, the governor was quoted as saying.
