Embrace peace, Adeleke urges defeated APC aspirants

The first civilian Governor of Osun State, Senator Isiaka Adeleke, on Wednesday, appealed to aggrieved politicians in the All Progressives Congress in Osun State to embrace peace and cooperate with the party.

The former governor, in his Christmas goodwill message, felicitated with Christians in the state as they mark the festival, urging them to continue to live in harmony.

He called on the people of Osun-West senatorial district to give him another chance to serve them, promising to make life better for them.

Adeleke also enjoined the people of the state to vote massively for all the candidates of APC in the 2015 general elections.

He said he was eyeing the senate to consolidate on the economic empowerment projects he initiated during his first period at the senate.

He expressed optimism for a quick resolution of the Boko Haram crisis in different parts of the country while urging Nigerians to maintain eternal vigilance.

Adeleke said, “The cooperation and unalloyed loyalty of Osun citizenry for Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola’s government at this crucial time of economic downturn, cannot be overemphasized, stressing that, tough time don’t last, tough people do. Despite the lean financial resources of Osun State, Governor Rauf Aregbesola is determined to see all ongoing projects to timely completion for the benefits of the people, much against the wrong insinuation been peddled by the opposition.” He further appealed to Osun citizens, to take their destiny in their hands by not allowing self-centred, short-sighted and politicians of low repute, to infiltrate their rank, “as such people have nothing good to offer the state, except self aggrandizement and unruly conduct.”

Also, the governorship candidate of the Social Democratic Party in Oyo State, Mr. Seyi Makinde, on Wednesday, promised to improve all sectors of the economy such security, education, health, transportation and provide job opportunities if elected.

Makinde, in his goodwill message to Christians in the state, urged Nigerians to continue to make personal sacrifices for the good of others.

“By the grace of God, as your trusted servant if I am elected as governor of the state on the platform of SDP, my administration will do all within its powers and abilities to transform Oyo State and make it one of the best states in Nigeria and ensure better life for the people.

“Everybody will have every opportunity and encouragement to make significant contributions towards forging the required consensus for sustained peace, unity and progress of Oyo State.”
