Sen. Bello Gwarzo, vice chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party’s North-West zonal committee, referred to the party’s victory in the governorship election in Osun State on Saturday as a “light” for the party.
On behalf of the PDP family in the North-West Zone, he congratulated Senator Ademola Adeleke in Kano and said that.
Senator Gwarzo went on to say that Adeleke was a tenacious person who fought for his illegally obtained mandate.
“Sen. Adeleke is a leader that demonstrated good leadership qualities by working tirelessly for the party. He is someone that the people of Osun want at this crucial moment where things have deteriorated in all sectors in the state.
“His victory is a light for our party and an indicator that the PDP will emerge victorious in the 2023 polls.
“As we are preparing for the 2023 elections, Nigerians should put it at the back of their mind that the PDP is ready to reposition this country and make their lives better.
“It’s obvious that the current predicament the All Progressives Congress-led government has inflicted on us is not only a failure of leadership but lack of strategy and preparedness. They came unprepared and our party is ready to correct all wrongs committed by the APC,” Gwarzo said.
Therefore, he urged party members to apply for Permanent Voter Cards so they may fulfill their civic duty and cast their ballots for the candidates they preferred.
According to reports, Adeleke has been named the victor of the Osun governorship race by the Independent National Electoral Commission.
In a hotly contested campaign, Adeleke defeated the incumbent, Adegboyega Oyetola of the All Progressives Congress, with a total of 403,371 votes, according to Prof. Oluwatoyin Ogundipe, the returning officer for the election and vice chancellor of the University of Lagos.
