Victory For Osun People, Signals End Of APC’s Reign Of Hardship – Atiku
The Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar has declared that the All Progressives Congress, APC’s) loss in Osun will be a win for the people of the state.
The former Vice President also said that it is when the people win that the PDP can truly boast of victory, saying that is the promise that the PDP holds, not just in Osun but everywhere else.
He therefore said that Saturday’s election is a battle between the people and the forces of darkness that has held the people hostage, stressing that it is a battle that he is certain the people shall win.
Atiku noted that for the past 12 years, Osun that was once a shinning star of the West has been thrown into a state of doldrums, adding however, that the good news is that the PDP is here.
In his words; “Imole has come on a rescue mission to return Osun to its state of glory and splendour and I, Atiku Abubakar and all leaders of our great party will be on ground in Osogbo to mobilize support for the success of our campaign.
“I don’t speak Yoruba but I understand a bit of it. Some members of my family speak the language fluently.
Of course, the Yoruba people are dear to my heart as other tribes in our country. But the Yoruba language has a unique quality that I admire in particular. It has the power of descriptiveness.
“By my understanding, the slogan of Imole as the brand identity of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) gubernatorial candidate in the Osun State election could not have been more apt.
“Imole is not just light. Indeed, the closest English interpretation of it is “to illuminate”. And for that, it is no wonder why our gubernatorial candidate, Senator Ademola Adeleke enjoys a groundswell of support amongst the esteemed people of the state across all localities and local governments.
“Our victory in Osun, by God’s grace and the overwhelming decision of the electorate, will send a strong message to the ruling APC party that their reign has come to an end,” he said.
