Gov Adeleke Calls Rigging Threats ‘Scaremongering’, Says He’ll Win 2026 Osun Guber Election By Wide Margin

Governor Ademola Adeleke has asked Osun State residents and indigenes to ignore rumours and threats in respect of the forthcoming gubernatorial election which he called ‘scaremongering’. He also asserted that ‘we shall win convincingly, we will win by a wide margin and we shall be declared winner’.

Reacting to concerns in some quarters about rigging threats and political violence, the governor said all hands are on deck to ensure that ‘our people exercise their voting rights without any hindrance’ vowing that ‘our votes will count and we shall emerge victorious’.

A statement made available to Team@orientactualmags.com by Governor Adeleke’s spokesperson, Mallam Olawale Rasheed noted that he has also urged Osun State people to ignore the scaremongering, the rigging rumours and the threats submitting that those who are promoting it have only strengthened the determination of the people to sustain and retain good governance.

Governor Adeleke added that residents of the state are resolved to enforce free and fair elections within the ambit of the law, as well as through formal and informal structures, declaring that ‘No one, I repeat, no one can deny Osun people their legitimate rights to choose their leaders’.

‘We are the cradle of Yoruba nation. We are the ancestral state of Mr President. No security or electoral official will dare attempt to set Osun State on fire. No federal official will contemplate rigging the forthcoming election in Osun State.

We will resist any move or ploy to tamper with the electoral process. We are closely monitoring all pre-election activities while watching machinery has been set in motion for both election and post-election period. We are not going to let our guard down’ the statement quoted the governor as saying.

On the political rupture in the main opposition party in the state, Governor Adeleke urged all politicians of goodwill to join hands with him to sustain current statewide delivery of good governance.

‘Our candidacy is beyond party lines. Ours is a pan-Osun movement, a rainbow coalition, to ensure the final exit of the state from under-development. So, our doors are open for new members to join our party.

I call on politicians and non-political stakeholders to join me in Accord ahead of August 15. It is better to abandon a sinking ship and join the light which my candidacy represents’ he added-Team@orientactualmags.com  Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
