Adeleke’s victory signs of things to come in 2023 – Dino Melaye

Former Kogi West lawmaker, Dino Melaye, has congratulated the Peoples Democratic Party’s governorship candidate in the Osun State election, Senator Ademola Adeleke, on his victory, describing it as “a good omen for the PDP come 2023.”

Melaye, who represented Kogi West Senatorial District in the National Assembly, in a statement on Sunday, said the victory was well-deserved “considering the fact that Adeleke was brazenly robbed in the 2018 governorship contest in the state.”

He, however, urged the former lawmaker to be magnanimous in victory in the interest of the people of the state and as well justify the confidence reposed in him by way of his election.

He also rejoiced with the PDP’s presidential candidate in the 2023 elections, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, for the Osun victory, saying it was a good omen for the party.

“This is a good omen for our party and signs of things to come in 2023. The victory of our party in Osun State is an indication of the confidence of ordinary Nigerians in the ability of the PDP to change the narrative and deliver good governance to all,” Melaye said.

According to the total votes recorded by the electoral umpire, the PDP won 17 of the 30 Local Government Areas of the state, while the APC won the remaining 13.
