Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, has dismissed rumours that he plans to defect to the All Progressives Congress.
Dismissing the rumour, the governor stated that he is not going anywhere, but remains in the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
Governor Adeleke made this known on Monday after the flag-off of the dualisation of the 3.5km Ila township road in Ila-Orangun, adding that his promised path is to serve the people and that he would not relent in doing so.
He expressed happiness over the inauguration of the dualisation of the Ila township road project despite what he described as the lingering uncertainties in the nation.
The governor said he had vowed to God and the good people of the state that he is committed to serving them and would never be distracted from the vow to serve the people of the state.
He boasted that his administration has so far completed the reconstruction, rehabilitation, and renovation of over 175 kilometres of roads, while several dualisation and flyover projects are at various stages of completion across the state.
According to him, the completion of the dualisation of the Osogbo–Ikirun–Inisha–Okuku–Ijabe and finally Ila Odo road, which is the boundary town with neighbouring Kwara State, a total length of 39km, is of paramount importance to his administration, expressing commitment to the completion of the project.
“I was elected on the platform of the PDP and so shall I remain in the party. I’m not going anywhere.
“The second phase, which we are flagging off today, is almost the same length as what was completed in 12 years. By the grace of God, we intend to deliver this project within 12 months.
“Our gathering here to witness the materialisation of a new era is not an accident of history. We are all programmed by Almighty God to be what we have been, what we are, and what we will be in the future,” he said.
