Osun Election: Wike Says He Told Adeleke to Present Certificate of Return to Tinubu

Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has said he advised Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, to present his Certificate of Return to President Bola Tinubu after the governorship election.

 

Wike made this known on Wednesday during a media parley with selected journalists.

 

The minister also said he advised Adeleke to issue a public statement thanking President Tinubu following his victory in the Osun governorship election.

 

Recall that Adeleke, who secured re-election in the August 15 poll, subsequently presented his Certificate of Return to President Tinubu and Wike.

 

“I told Adeleke to call Mr President and go and present his Certificate of Return to him. I also told him to make a press statement thanking Mr President after the Osun election,” Wike said.
