GOVERNOR Gboyega Oyetola has expressed confidence that he will emerge victorious in the July 16 Osun governorship election.
“My eight years in power as governor is sure with God on my side,” Oyetola said yesterday during a re-election campaign in Ila-Orangun, Ila Local Government Area (LGA) of the state.
“It will take the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) 30 years to recover from the shock it will receive due to the defeat the party would suffer in the July 16 governorship election.
“The opposition parties should use this period to prepare for governance rather than contesting. Governance is not child’s play,” the governor added.
Oyetola, however, appealed to the electorate not to sell their votes, saying that those who were planning to buy votes will not be around after the election.
“Don’t panic. God has ordained us. They will be going about with money, but do not be swayed by their actions. Do not sell your children’s future. They will not be available after the election. They are opportunists.
“But we are here for you any day. Do not partake in oath taking because of their money,” the governor said, while appealing to the Osun electorate to get their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) to enable them to vote.
He also told members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state to not “look for Oyetola on the ballot box, my photograph will not be there.
“You will look for APC logo with broom and vote with your index finger. APC will emerge victorious in Osun,” he said.
