Former Speaker of the House of Representatives and Senator representing Sokoto South Senatorial District, Aminu Tambuwal, has congratulated Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, on his re-election, describing the outcome of the governorship election as a triumph for democracy and the will of the people.
Tambuwal, a chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and immediate past governor of Sokoto State, said the election result reflected the determination of the people of Osun State to protect democratic values through the ballot box.
In a congratulatory message posted on his official X account, the senator said Adeleke’s renewed mandate underscored the power of the electorate to freely choose their leaders.
“This victory is not only a personal triumph for Governor Adeleke; it is a victory for democracy and, above all, a victory for the people of Osun State, who have once again exercised their constitutional right to determine who leads them,” Tambuwal affirmed.
Reflecting on the significance of the election, Tambuwal said the outcome reaffirmed the importance of the ballot as the strongest instrument through which citizens express their democratic will.
“The ballot remains the most powerful expression of the will of the people in a democracy. When citizens freely make their choice and that choice is respected, our democratic institutions are strengthened and public confidence in the electoral process is deepened,” Tambuwal opined.
He also commended the people of Osun State for their peaceful participation and commitment to the electoral process, noting that the result showed the confidence voters have in Governor Adeleke’s leadership.
Tambuwal urged the governor to view his renewed mandate as a call to greater service, stressing that inclusive governance should remain a priority throughout his second term.
“As he prepares to continue the work of governance, I urge him to see this renewed mandate as an even greater responsibility to serve all the people of Osun State, irrespective of political affiliation,” Tambuwal advised.
The senator further prayed for divine wisdom, strength and success for Governor Adeleke as he continues to lead the state.
“Congratulations, Your Excellency. Congratulations to the people of Osun State. Democracy has won,” Tambuwal enthused.
