“When I look at my story, God has been so faithful to me. My own story is different, I always defeat an incumbent. I have to thank God for what he has done for us in Osun because we prayed and won. We won in 2018 too but were cheated yet we didn’t give up,” he said.
“The crowd I saw on the day I returned from the US after studying, I know God is ready for us. So, we changed our prayer in 2022 that if we win, every evil person that wants to stop us, God should clear them away. So, be specific in what you pray for because God listens.”
Adeleke promises to move Osun forward
Moving forward, the governor reiterated that his administration is poised and focused on developing the southwest state.
He added that soon his efforts after 100 days in office will be obvious for everyone in the state and beyond to see.
His words:
“Our 100 days programmes have already begun and in no time, it will manifest for everyone to see. Osun State will move forward.
“Some people want to use religion to divide us. In my own administration, that will not be tolerated.”
