Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State says the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is ready to rescue the country from the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The governor said this while reacting to the victory of Senator Ademola Adeleke, the PDP candidate in the just-concluded Osun gubernatorial election.
Ortom stated that the emergence of Senator Adeleke as the Osun governor-elect is a measure of trust and confidence of the citizens in him and the PDP.
In a congratulatory message on Sunday, Ortom commended the Osun governor-elect for his steadfastness, hard work and commitment to the welfare of the people which earned him the victory.
The Benue governor counselled Senator Adeleke not to take the trust and confidence for granted, adding that the people of the state expect him to change the narrative by bringing positive changes to the South West state.
He urged Adeleke to sustain and improve his family’s reputation of excellence, dignity and leadership so that Osun State can regain her glory under his administration.
He said: “On behalf of myself, the government and the PDP family in Benue State, I congratulate Senator Ademola Adeleke on his election as the Governor-elect of Osun State. I am convinced that you will provide enduring leadership for the people in appreciation for the massive support they have given you by your election.”
“The victory of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate; Senator Adeleke in the Osun election is a measure of trust and confidence of the citizens in him and the party.
“The election of Adeleke is a precursor to the sweet round of victories awaiting the PDP as we begin to take back all the states in our resolve to rescue Nigeria from the destruction meted to it by the clueless APC-led federal government.”
Governor Ortom expressed confidence that the victory of the party in Osun State will further change the political map of the South West.
He praised the people of Osun, the Independent National Electoral Commission ( INEC), the media, civil society organizations (CSOs) and the security operatives for ensuring that the will of the people prevailed.
The governor also congratulated the National Chairman of the PDP, Senator Iyorchia Ayu and the National Working Committee of the party for the victory.
