“If I am given the party’s ticket and eventually elected governor, I will fight corruption vigorously and ensure that public resources are channelled towards serving the people, not a select privileged few,” he said.
Adegoke also pledged major infrastructure projects, stronger security measures, and governance rooted in transparency and efficiency.
“The people of Osun deserve a government that is not only responsive but proactive; not just well-intentioned, but effective and visionary. A government capable of driving prosperity, creating wealth, and reducing dependence on federal allocations,” he added.
