Speaking to reporters after casting his vote, the PDP governorship candidate commended the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for its efforts and said that the process was “fantastic”.

According to him, everything is going well and that has been the situation from the information he has gotten from other voting areas.

He said with the feelers he was getting across the state, calmness was the order of the day and he expects the situation to remain the same till the end of the electoral process.

On rumoured vote-buying by political opponents, Adeleke said the process was just starting and he hopes they would remain rumours.

“We want this election to be a point of contact for 2023. The whole world is watching us and this is going to be a test for us all. So, let Osun people decide who they want,” he said.
