Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State, yesterday, refuted his rumoured defection, disclosing that he is going nowhere and remains in the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
Speaking after the flag-off of the dualisation of the 3.5 km Ila township road in Ila-Orangun, Adeleke said his promise path is to serve the people and would not relent in doing so.
He said, “I am glad that we are here today to flag off the dualisation of the Ila township road project despite the lingering uncertainties in the nation. I have vowed to my God and the good people of the State that I am committed to serving them, and I will never be distracted from my vow to serve the people of the State.”

He further stated that his administration has so far completed the reconstruction, rehabilitation and renovation of over 175 kilometres of roads, while several dualisation and flyover projects are at various stages of completion across the state.
While in Ikirun for the dualisation of the Ikirun-Ila-Odo express road, the PDP governor said, “It is believed that the completion of the dualisation of Osogbo-Ikirun-Inisha-Okuku-Ijabe and finally Ila Odo, which is the boundary town with our neighbouring Kwara State, with a total length of 39 km, is of paramount importance to this administration, and I am committed to the completion of this project by the grace of God.
“The second phase, which we are flagging off today, is almost the same length as what was completed in 12 years. By the grace of God, we intend to deliver this project within 12 months.
“Our gathering here to witness the materialisation of a new era is not an accident of history. We are all programmed by Almighty God to be what we have been, what we are and what we will be in the future.”
