Endorsing Tinubu Won’t Save Adeleke From Defeat in Osun, Oyetola SaysThe Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Gboyega Oyetola, has said Governor Ademola Adeleke’s support for President Bola Tinubu will not prevent him from losing the forthcoming Osun State governorship election.Oyetola, a former governor of Osun State and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, made the statement while speaking on the political situation in the state ahead of the August 15 governorship poll.He argued that Adeleke’s endorsement of Tinubu would not translate into victory for the governor at the state level, insisting that voters would make their decision based on the candidates and their records in office.The minister’s remarks come amid an increasingly competitive contest between the ruling Peoples Democratic Party and the APC, with both parties intensifying campaigns and mobilisation across the state.Oyetola urged voters to support the APC candidate, Bola Oyebamiji, expressing confidence that the party would emerge victorious in the election.
