Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke, the Accord Party's gubernatorial candidate, has stated that he is not intimidated by the supposed backing of the Federal Government and other state governors for his opponent, the All Progressives Congress candidate. During a town hall meeting, Adeleke described himself as a "bulldozer" and said he was ready to face what he termed as federal influence and the support of governors behind his rival.
He insisted that the presence of governors backing his opponent would not affect the election outcome, adding that if they wanted to bring all the governors, he would welcome it. Adeleke noted that the governors supporting his rival were his friends, clarifying that they could campaign but would not have the right to vote for the APC candidate.
He emphasized that he is a civil administrator and does not have the power to deploy military forces in Osun State. These statements came as political parties ramped up their activities ahead of the gubernatorial election in Osun.
