Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, Ojaja II, has congratulated the governor-elect of Osun State, Sen. Ademola Adeleke on his victory in Saturday\u2019s election.<\/p>\n

Ogunwusi, in a statement by his Director of Media and Public Affairs, Otunba Moses Olafare, on Tuesday in Ile-Ife, described the victory as a confirmation of Adeleke\u2019s grassroots popularity.<\/p>\n

He urged the governor-elect to carry everybody on board and focus on his plans to deliver the dividends of democracy to the people of the State.<\/p>\n

\u201cMr Governor-Elect is from a noble family and a strong political dynasty in the State who must avoid to be misled by hypocrisy and sycophancy of some arrogant political lieutenants,\u201d he advised.<\/p>\n

Ooni equally hailed Gov. Gboyega Oyetola for his peace-loving character before, during and after the election.<\/p>\n

He described Oyetola as a \u201cperfect gentleman of peace\u201d, who kept to his promise at the peace accord meeting organised by the National Peace Committee in Osogbo few days to the election.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cOyetola signed the peace accord alongside 12 other contestants and promised to conduct himself peacefully before, during and after the election in the character of a gentleman and a simple leader in all ramifications, hence must be commended.\u201d<\/p>\n

The traditional ruler also lauded the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for its neutrality during the poll.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe success and smoothness of the voting exercise was not without the virtuous ethos of Omoluabi displayed across the State by the Osun electorate.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey are truly the heroes of that election day,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
