Oyetola Refuses To Congratulate Adeleke, Sends Message To Security Operatives

 

The All Progressives Congress and the Osun State Governor, Adegboyega Oyetola are yet to send congratulatory message to winner of Saturday's governorship election in the state, Ademola Adeleke.

 

Reacting after the Independent National Electoral Commisson declared Adeleke winner of the election, Oyetola said the leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state will respond to the result of the poll after studying it.

 

This was contained in a statement signed by Oyetola’s Chief Press Secretary, Ismail Omipidan, on Sunday.

 

“He, however, noted that the party would be responding appropriately after studying the results and consulting with critical stakeholders of the party,” the statement read in part.

 

It added that the Governor has “directed security operatives to take adequate charge so as to prevent break down of law and order.”

Adeleke polled a total of 403,371 votes, while Oyetola got 375,027 to finish second.
