Ademola Adeleke, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate for Osun West Senatorial District, has boasted that he will win the by-election on July 8.

He stated this yesterday, while speaking in Abuja when the party’s National Chairman, Alhaji Ali Modu Sheriff, presented him with PDP’s flag at the national secretariat.


Adeleke is vying for the vacant seat his brother, Senator Isiaka Adeleke, occupied until his death on April 24.

“I believe victory is ours. We are winning. Nobody can stop us in Osun State. After the July 8 election, we will surely come back to this PDP national secretariat to celebrate our victory.

“The APC is not a steadfast party. They lie too much. I am not new in Osun politics. I have worked closely with my late brother, who was the grand master of Osun politics.

“The death of Senator Adeleke will surely play a great part in the election and ensure my victory,” he said.
