Gov Adeleke, Be At full Throttle But Watch Your Back- Olumide Lawal
May God empower Governor Ademola Adeleke with wisdom and the robust health needed to deal decisively with the selfish interests of the professional sycophants and hypocrites, who cry hosanna today, but crucify him tomorrow.
He had hit the ground running and he should now do things faster than he had started. He should now be at full throttle; the overall welfare of Osun peasants should be his concern and not those who mill round him 24/7 for their selfish interests.
Those of you, who are very close to him should not shy away from telling him all these unassailable bitter facts, to enable him succeed glowingly. I commend his giant strides with respect to infrastructural development all over the state and promotion of the welfare of civil . servants and pensioners. I also commend his fast grasp of governance that has enabled him to perform very well.
Four years is just around the corner. The governor should not let down his guard, now that all legal matters are resolved in his favour , the buck stops with him , It is him and him alone, that bears ADEMOLA ADELEKE and who would be held accountable and responsible to the good people of Osun state, who freely gave him their votes and the mandate. Not Dr Deji or any other members of his family will be held accountable .
Osun should be a state of good reference after the first four years and subsequently the whole eight years by God’s grace. He should not allow bootlickers to make unnecessary enemies for him. This is a small step for him towards realizing greater ambition but a giant leap for enduring democracy and good governance in Osun state. The very best of luck to the governor. Let us keep on glorifying God Almighty, who in His mercy, made it all possible.
Not by might, but by His grace–Mr. Olumide Lawal , who served as late Alhaji Isiaka Adeleke’s media aide during his governorship between 1992 and 1993 and played the same role until his death six years ago, writes from Ede, Osun state.
