The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has slammed Adamu, APC, National Chairman, and Governor Oyetola stating their mortal fear for Semator Adeleke’s popularity is well understood in the forthcoming election.
Newsonline reports that the PDP, said the forthcoming Osun election can not save colourless, rejected, and sinking incumbent governor Oyetola.
Publicity Secretary, Peoples Democratic Party, Debo Ologunagba, said it was worrisome that Adamu sees the democratic election as war, by threatening his campaign council to do whatsoever is necessary to win Osun election come July 16.
The PDP described the statement by the APC boss as “reckless, irresponsible and shows the level of APC’s aversion to peaceful electoral process and disdain for the democratic right, freedom, and sovereignty of the people of Osun State to freely and peacefully choose their leaders.”
In a statement issued on Saturday, the PDP spokesman, Debo Ologunagba said Abdullahi should know that his resort to incitement in the forthcoming election in Osun State “cannot save the colourless, rejected and sinking Governor Gboyega Oyetola from inevitable defeat in the July 16, 2022 poll.”

The PDP added: “It is pertinent to remind Abdullahi Adamu that election is not a warfare! Directing his party members to “go down to the trenches” in the Osun State Governorship election and brazenly asserting zero tolerance for election defeat cannot find accommodation within the ambits of the law.
“Abdullahi Adamu’s comment further confirms that the APC is in mortal fear of Senator Adeleke’s soaring popularity, realizing that Governor Oyetola is no match for Senator Adeleke; a blunt reality for which the APC National Chairman has now become frenetic.
“It is distressing that the APC has become so chaotic in the pursuit of its territorial occupation agenda that the National Chairman views the Osun State governorship election as a warfare in which the people must be conquered.
“More provoking is Abdullahi Adamu’s brazen assertion that the APC has no apology for such an irresponsible, reckless and offensive “posture” against the sensibilities of the people of Osun State.
“Nigerians clearly observed the nerviness and dread of defeat written all over the APC National Chairman’s face while inaugurating and threatening the APC’s National Campaign Council on Osun Governorship Election not to come back crying in defeat; a fate that already awaits the APC on July 16.
“Abdullahi Adamu should know that the Osun State Governorship election is not about incitements, issuing of threats, and grandstanding as a ruling Party. He must understand that this election is a referendum on the monumental failure of the APC in Osun State and that the people are solidly behind Senator Ademola Adeleke in their resolve to liberate themselves from the stranglehold of the incompetent, vicious and inhumane APC administration in Osun State.
“Governor Oyetola in the last four years displayed unparalleled incompetence in governance and ran the most ineffective and clueless administration in the history of Osun State.”
