…Says Oyetola will reclaim mandate

As part of the build-up activities towards the realisation of the 2023 presidential election for the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Ahmed Tinubu, one of the leading movement, led by the wife of Osun State Governor, Kafayat Oyetola, ‘Akoni Obinrin Osun’, on Tuesday shut down the state for the candidate from Southwest, Voice Air Media reports.

In an event that looked more of a victory walk, the group members in their uniforms set aside other engagements, trooped out in their thousands to show their support for the standard-bearer of the APC and his running mate, Senator Kashim Shettima.

The walk commenced at the Government House Ilobu Road down to Okefia-Alekuwodo-Olaiya under the bridge- Fagbewesa then U-turn back to popular Olaiya junction.

The walk attended by members of the group from across the 36 states also turned to Orisunbare market to Old Garage and round up at Freedom Park where the First Lady and other Dignitaries address the crowd.

At the Osun Women Walk for Tinubu, the wife to the Incumbent Governor of Osun State, Kafayat Oyetola said that her husband, Adegboyega Oyetola will reclaim mandate at the court and serve another term.

“Oyetola’s tenure hasn’t gone, he will be governor of Osun State beyond 27th of November 2022, his mandate still continue”.

Speaking further, Kafayat said, ”We, Akoni Obinrin (Brave Women) in Osun are ready to vote in Asiwaju Bola Tinubu as the next President of Nigeria and by showing our support for them, we are targeting a million votes in the state, that’s why this walk was mobilised.

“We have seen what he has done in the past, we have seen what he has done in the country and outside the country, he is the man that can work with anybody whether Hausa, Yoruba, or Igbo. He’s a complete Nigerian without bias.

“We strongly believe that with the good works he has done in Lagos, if he wins the election he will do more and better for the people of Nigeria”.

The Osun First Lady urged women to make sure that all their votes should be cast for Tinubu and his running mate, Shettima.

“We should make sure that all our votes should be cast for Bola Tinubu. I urged everyone to go to their local government, wards to advocate for Asiwaju, we believe that if Tinubu/ Shettima comes into power, there will be transformation in the infrastructural and health sector in Nigeria”, she added.

“From the events of over-voting that occurred during the 2022 governorship election, we will ensure adequate monitoring, we will go to polling units to cast our votes, mobilise at polling units to prevent rigging or electoral malpractice that happened months ago, we are ready to monitor the Bimodal Voters Accreditation System, BVAS. We will do all what it take to prevent preloaded BVAS.

In her comment, the Commissioner of Information in the State, Mrs Funke Egbemode, said, “Tinubu has done well before and he will do well again, he is the man we can trust. He is the man we have detected and he is the one we can trust and let’s come out on the day of election to cast our vote for him, to ensure his victory come 2023.

The Osun chairman of All Progressives Congress (APC), Prince Gboyega Famodun said, “Voters registration in Nigeria has shown that their are more female electorate voters. They have more roles to play in determining who will win election. With todays display of support by women, victory is certain for Tinubu in 2023.”
