A member of the House of Representatives, Bamidele Salam has said that the electorate voted for something better and different during the Osun State 2022 gubernatorial election.
Bamidele, who represents Ede South, Ede North, Egbedore, and Ejigbo Federal Constituency in the Green chamber and who was also the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) agent at the Osun guber result declaration, stated that Governor Adegboyega Oyetola did not abide by the promises he made in his inaugural address on November 26, 2018.
“He promised to set up nine agro parks in the federal constituencies in the State and he has not done any yet.
“He also promised to rehabilitate the Osogbo-Iwo road which he did not work on,” Salam said.
Salam, while appearing on Channels TV programme, The Gavel on Sunday, noted that the election of 2018 was won by Senator Ademola Adeleke and the electorate decided to reiterate their decision in 2022 by voting for him again.
“There was massive vote buying by the All Progressives Congress (APC) agents, if not, the margin between the results of the PDP and APC would have been higher.
“Election stipulates that the electorate must vote for something better and different, Salam said.
Recall that Ademola Adeleke of the PDP was declared the winner of the Osun 2022 gubernatorial election.
In the election result declared early on Sunday morning by Professor Oluwatoyin Temitayo Ogundipe, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) Returning Officer, Adeleke polled 403,371 as against the 375,027 votes for Governor Adegboyega Oyetola of the APC.
