Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State has promised to reveal “the secret” of his victory at the July 16, 2022 governorship election to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate in Ogun State, Oladipupo Adebutu.

“I will tell my brother, Lado my secret and the strategies we used to win in Osun,” Adeleke told party supporters at the Ake Palace Ground in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital on Wednesday.

Adeleke said the PDP will replicate its victory in Osun in the forthcoming governorship election in Ogun by displacing the incumbent All Progressives Congress (APC) administration led by Governor Dapo Abiodun.

“What I have to tell you is that the victory that happened in Osun will be replicated in Ogun by God’s grace. The revolution has started in Osun.

“Now that I have come to Ogun, light has come and when light comes, darkness vanishes,” the Osun governor said.

Adeleke of the PDP surprisingly defeated the then-incumbent governor, Gboyega Oyetola when he won 17 out of the 30 local government areas at the July 16 poll last year.

Adeleke, who met with President Muhammadu Buhari last week, commended him for signing the Electoral Act 2022 which he said paved the way for his victory at the poll.

Also at the rally on Wednesday include the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar and his wife, Titi; as well as the party’s vice-presidential candidate, Ifeanyi Okowa. Others are the party’s National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu; former Senate President, Bukola Saraki; Governors Aminu Tambuwa (Sokoto) and Udom Emmanuel (Akwa Ibom), amongst other PDP bigwigs.
