The All Progressives Congress lost the last Osun State governorship election because it became disconnected from the grassroots, suffered internal divisions and alienated voters through its campaign approach, the Spokesperson to Governor Ademola Adeleke, Mallam Olawale Rasheed, has said. Rasheed spoke on Thursday during a virtual town hall organised under the Nigeria Leadership Series by the Africa Leadership Group and hosted by Pastor Ituah Ighodalo. The programme, titled “Osun State Election: Implications for 2027,” featured an APC chieftain, Abbas Farouq, Esq., Managing Partner of Abdu-Salaam Abbas & Co., among the speakers. Farouq, while commenting on the election, said Adeleke clearly deserved his re-election. “Only someone who doesn't have the fear of God will say that Governor Adeleke did not deserve to win his re-election,” Farouq said.
