Tuesday, 5th March, 2019 was a promising day for Oyo State gubernatorial candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Adebayo Adelabu as Shina Abiola Peller joined the gubernatorial campaign trail across Oke-ogun region.
Eventfully, the campaign movement, which took off from Iseyin to Ado-Awaye, yielded a positive result in Okeho of Kajola local government where some members of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) openly declared their defection to APC.
On his arrival in Iseyin, the prospective Oyo State governor was received and accompanied by Hon. Shina Peller, the Oyo State Commissioner for Works and Transport, Alhaji Oladimeji Dauda and other APC chieftains to the palace of Oba (Dr.) Abdulganiyu Adekunle Salau, Aseyin of Iseyin.
While welcoming the campaign team to his palace, the revered traditional ruler, Oba Adekunle reminded all that he wholeheartedly gave his royal blessing to Shina Peller’s political aspiration and added that he is happy that the aspiration has become a reality today.
Drawing an inference from this, His Royal Majesty assuredly showered royal blessings on Oyo State APC gubernatorial candidate and wished him victory on Saturday.
In a similar development, while in Okeho, Adebayo Adelabu also received royal blessings of His Royal Majesty, , Oba Abdul Rafiu Mustapha Osuolale II, the Onjo of Okeholand.
The gubernatorial campaign team then headed back to Hon Shina Peller’s house in Iseyin where the prospective Oyo State governor, Adebayo Adelabu, passed the night. Adelabu’s campaign tour across Oke-Ogun region continued the following day, 6th March, 2019.
