Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s Presidential candidate, congratulated Senator Ademola Adeleke on his election as Governor of Osun State, wishing him a fruitful and productive tenure.
Newsclick Nigeria reported that Adeleke who defeated erstwhile governor, Gboyega Oyetola in the governorship election in June was sworn in on Sunday.
Obi while congratulating Adeleke, on his Twitter page on Monday, also commended the resilient spirit of the newly crowned governor.
The former Anambra governor asserted that the emergence of Adeleke represented a successful manifestation of the democratic process, hence should be celebrated as a victory of the true will of the people.
“I congratulate the Governor of Osun State, Senator Ademola Adeleke, and the good people of Osun State, on his inauguration and formal commencement of the elected mandate of his people.
“Beyond our partisanship in politics, every successful manifestation of the democratic process, above all impediments, is a triumph of the true will of the majority, and a source of shared joy to all who desire the best, for our dear country.
“I salute the doggedness and resilience of Governor Adeleke, and wish him a fruitful and productive tenure, in the service of his people,” Obi tweeted.
