Osun Not A Rehabilitation Center For Perennial Losers,PDP Tells APC

By Omolola Okanlawon, Osogbo

Osun State Chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP)has described All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship aspirants, as “ego-driven merchants” who have no real plans to develop the state.

This was contained in a statement signed by the Party’s Director of media, Hezekiah Bamiji,following the flurry of governorship aspirants springing up within APC.

He said, “While the PDP welcomes all contenders to the democratic arena, the party insists that Osun State is not a political rehabilitation center for perennial losers and ego-driven merchants, whose ambition is rooted more in personal aggrandizement than in genuine service to the people”.

“It is laughable watching men who once contributed to the misery of our people suddenly re-emerge with hastily assembled declarations, parading themselves as emergency redeemers,” the statement reads.

Bamiji questioned what the aspirants forgot in Abere Government Secretariat that they are so desperate to recover.

“We challenge these aspirants to tell the people of Osun State what exactly they forgot in Abere government secretariat that they are so desperate to recover. Is it the files of unpaid salaries, abandoned pensioners, or the stolen hopes of our teachers and local government workers?”.

He boasted that the 2026 governorship election will be a walk in the park for Governor Adeleke,regardless of whoever the opposition chooses as candidate.

“The Osun State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has declared that the 2026 governorship election will be a walk in the park for the incumbent, His Excellency, Senator Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke, regardless of whoever the opposition fields as candidate”.

He noted that the people of Osun now know the real progress after experiencing years of suffering,they won’t trade a caring government for the same leader who made them suffer.

“Let it be known: it will take more than recycled propaganda and federal name-dropping to unseat Governor Adeleke. The people of Osun are not fools. They have seen the difference between pain and progress, between arrogant rulers and compassionate leadership. They will not allow a reversal”.
