Ahead of the governorship election in Osun State, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu, on Tuesday, July 12, 2022, lashed out at the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and Labour Party, LP, in the state.
The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, had scheduled the Osun State governorship election to hold on July 16.
Osun State governor, Gboyega Oyetola is seeking to return to power for his second term, while Ademola Adeleke of the PDP is the front runner for the gubernatorial race.
LP has Lasun Yusuf as its governorship candidate.
However, Tinubu dismissed the possibility of PDP and LP giving the APC a stiff contest.
Speaking at the party’s mega rally, he described PDP and LP as “mushroom parties”.
He urged residents of Osun State to consider their future and vote for APC.
According to Tinubu: “I ask you to please do the same thing you did in Ekiti. Come out with your PVCs and vote massively for APC.
