Osun State's Governor Ademola Adeleke, running as the Accord Party candidate for governor, declared on Tuesday during an Arise Townhall Meeting that he is not deterred by the alleged backing of the Federal Government and some state governors for his rival, the All Progressives Congress candidate. Adeleke stated that he is prepared to face what he called the "federal might" and the influence of governors supporting his opponent.
He emphasized that the presence of these governors would not affect the election's outcome, saying, "I am a bulldozer. I am not afraid of federal might and governors backing the APC candidate. If they like, they should bring all the governors." Adeleke also indicated that the governors backing his opponent were friends, clarifying that they could campaign but could not vote for the APC candidate.
He dismissed claims that his administration had militarized Osun State, asserting that he lacked the constitutional authority to deploy the armed forces.
