Governor Ajimobi: APC Will Win Osun Guber Poll

Gov. Abiola Ajimobi of Oyo State has expressed confidence that
the APC candidate, Alhaji Gboyega Oyetola, will emerge victorious
in the forthcoming governorship election in Osun State.

He expressed the opinion in Ibadan on Wednesday while receiving
Danjuma Ibrahim, the Assistant Inspector-General of Police in
charge of Zone II in his office.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the governorship
election in Osun State will hold on Sept. 22.

Ajimobi said that Oyetola would win the election, judging by the
exemplary performance of the incumbent administration under Gov.
Rauf Aregbesola.

“We are confident that the APC will win the Sept. 22 election
because of the exemplary performance of the incumbent
administration in Osun State. One should have no doubt that the APC
will retain Osun State,” he said.

The governor, who described Ibrahim as an intelligent officer,
expressed confidence that the leadership of the police in the zone
was well grounded and competent to ensure a peaceful election.

He assured the police authority of the state government’s
readiness to assist the zone in ensuring a successful governorship
election in Osun State.

“AIG Danjuma Ibrahim is one of the most intelligent officers I
have ever met and I can easily predict that he will get to the peak
of his career soon.

“It is very apparent, though, that APC will win easily because
ours is the only party that is on ground and accepted by the
people.

“We are quite sure that the coming Osun election is going to be
free and fair, and we shall provide necessary support towards
this,” he said.

Earlier, Ibrahim commended the governor for restoring peace and
security to the state through the combined efforts of security
agencies, which he said had spurred socio-economic growth.

He appealed to the governor to extend the assistance to the
police command by refurbishing operational vehicles, provision of
Armoured Personnel Carriers and other logistic supports to the
zonal command.

“You already know that policing is not easy, especially when you
consider the logistics that must be put in place to achieve
success. The zonal command needs operational vehicles to assist our
operation.

“On the coming Osun State governorship elections, we can assure
you that we have more than enough personnel ready for the
assignment.

“We will do everything humanly possible to ward off intruders
that might want to sneak in and wreck havoc on the election day. We
know Osun State to be peaceful, but we do not want to leave
anything to chance.

“So we are soliciting your support to also help in spreading the
gospel of peace to the people in Oyo State and to caution
anti-democratic elements against coming to Osun State to foment
trouble during the election,” he said.
