Former Vice President Atiku
Abubakar, has appealed to the Social Democratic Party (SDP) candidate in the
Osun State governorship election, Senator Iyiola Omisore, to join Peoples
Democratic Party in the re-run election.
This followed the announcement by
the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, on Sunday that there will
be a rerun on Thursday, Sept. 27 after it declared the poll ‘inconclusive’
Omisore is the governorship
candidate of the Social Democratic Party in the election in which the candidate
of the PDP, Senator Ademola Adeleke, came first with 254, 698 votes while the
candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Mr Gboyega Oyetola, came second
with 254,345 voters.
Atiku while predicting victory
for the PDP ahead of Thursday’s rerun, called on Omisore to remember when PDP
believed in him in 2014.
The Wazirin Adamawa wrote on his
Twitter page: “I am confident PDP will win in Osun, no matter the ulterior
motive of APC. I call on Senator Omisore to remember the PDP, which believed in
him and gave him its ticket in 2014.
“I urge him to join with all who
want to deliver Osun from negative change and support Adeleke.”
