Osun Poll Outcome Affirms People's Resolve to Keep Adeleke, Says IPAC

The Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC) in Osun State has congratulated Governor Ademola Adeleke on his re-election, interpreting the poll's outcome as a clear affirmation of the electorate's resolve to retain him for another four-year term. In a statement released Monday, Osun IPAC chairman Tosin Odeyemi praised the voters for participating peacefully and commended electoral stakeholders, including the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), security agencies, and the media, for ensuring the people's will was reflected.

“

The outcome of the poll was an affirmation of the people’s resolve to keep you His Excellency, Senator Ademola Adeleke in office for another four years.

IPAC views the election result as a strong endorsement of Governor Adeleke's first-term programs and a renewed vote of confidence. "The outcome of the poll was an affirmation of the people’s resolve to keep you His Excellency, Senator Ademola Adeleke in office for another four years," the statement read. The council emphasized that this confidence brings increased responsibility to serve all citizens impartially.

“

Governance should transcend party lines. The talents, ideas and goodwill in the opposition and among technocrats, women, youths, persons with disabilities and traditional institutions must be harnessed for the good of Osun.

As a coalition of political parties, IPAC urged Governor Adeleke to govern inclusively during his second term. They stressed the importance of harnessing the talents and ideas from opposition parties, technocrats, women, youth, persons with disabilities, and traditional institutions for the state's benefit. The council also implored the governor to ensure equitable distribution of appointments and projects across Osun's three senatorial districts and 30 local government areas, ensuring no community feels neglected.

“

No community should feel left out. When everyone has a sense of belonging, peace and development will be faster and more sustainable.

Looking ahead, IPAC encouraged the governor to avoid complacency and to consolidate on existing projects while initiating new ones that will have a lasting impact. They highlighted the public's expectations for improved service delivery in critical sectors like education, health, agriculture, infrastructure, and youth employment. IPAC pledged to act as a constructive opposition, offering issue-based criticism and support for policies that align with the interests of Osun's people.
