Senator Seriake Dickson, National Leader of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has congratulated Governor Ademola Adeleke on his victory in the Osun State governorship election.

In a statement on the election outcome, the former Bayelsa State governor said Adeleke’s victory represented an important moment for both Osun State and Nigeria’s democracy.

Dickson said the result demonstrated that voters could still make their voices heard through the ballot despite the difficulties and challenges surrounding the country’s political system.

“I warmly congratulate the Governor of Osun State, His Excellency Senator Ademola Adeleke, on his victory in the Osun State Governorship Election,” he said.

“This victory is significant not only for Governor Adeleke and the people of Osun State, but also for our democracy. It is a reminder that, even in an increasingly challenging political environment, the people can still assert their democratic will through the ballot,” Dickson added.

He commended Osun voters for defending their choice at the polls and urged all stakeholders to respect the outcome of the election.

“I commend the people of Osun State for standing firm in defence of their democratic choice,” he said.

Dickson also appealed to Adeleke’s opponents to accept the result and put aside their political differences in the interest of the state.

“I call on all those who contested the election and emerged on the losing side to join hands with the Governor in the spirit of sportsmanship and work for the peace and development of Osun State,” he said.

The NDC leader ended his statement by wishing Adeleke and the people of Osun State peace, progress and prosperity.
