Eight days after inauguration as Executive Governor of Osun State HE Senator Ademola Adeleke said he will continue to praise and thank God for his success in the election that brought him as Governor.
He also thanked his family and people of the state on his assumption of office, vowing to deliver on good governance through his administration’s five point agenda.

The governor stated this while speaking at a thanksgiving service held at the Eternal Sacred Order of Cherubim and Seraphim, Oke Gada, Ede.

He recalled the travails he passed through in his path to governorship, citing gang ups and resolute campaign of calumny from within and outside his party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

As contained in a press release by his spokesperson, Mallam Olawale Rasheed, Governor Adeleke, during the thanksgiving service, stated: “We passed through tough days before we reached here.

“I can’t but constantly praise God, my brother, my sister, my political associates, my friends and the great people of Osun State.

“That massive support accounted for my hitting the ground running a week ago. That was why I issued those executive orders to dismantle all illegalities and clean up the mess I inherited.

“The man I defeated set many traps for my administration but we are removing all the evil structures they put in place. I have used the first one week to take charge and set the tone for good governance.

“From the new week, I will continue the great work. We are shaking up the system; we are unveiling and commencing implementation of our agenda.

“I thank the people of Osun for their love and show of huge backing. I reassure them that all my actions will continue to be in the best interest of the state.

“All what I have done and will still do are to serve the people, meet their aspirations and restore good governance in Osun State.”

Giving the Vote of Thanks on behalf of the government of Osun State, Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Honourable Teslim Igbalaye, thanked God for using the Adeleke family to liberate the people of the state from oppression, exploitation and bad governance.

“We give thanks to God and to the Adeleke family; our chairman, Dr Deji Adeleke; our mother in the House, Yeye Modupe Sani-Adeleke.

“We commend the clerics for their prayers, the party leadership at all levels, the loyalists within and outside the PDP.

“We are set to deliver on good governance and dividends of democracy. We will not fail Osun people by the special grace of God,” the SSG noted.
