“Your victory sends a clear message that when Nigerians stand together with courage, determination and common purpose, they can defend democratic choices and compel leaders to act in the best interests of the people,” he said.
Obaseki, drawing from his political experience, said the outcome should remind elected officials that their primary responsibility was to the electorate.
“From my political experience, a hard-fought election ultimately decided by the people reminds every public office holder that loyalty must always remain with the people,” he said.
He urged Adeleke to regard his renewed mandate as a responsibility to deepen good governance, pursue further development and prioritise the welfare of Osun residents.
