Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun state has urged Osun indigenes and residents to participate actively in the continuous voters\u2019 registration exercise that commences nationwide today, calling it \u201ca critical civic responsibility\u201d.<\/p>\n
In a statement issued on Monday in Osogbo, the Governor who noted the importance of registration for those that recently entered voting age said all eligible voters must ensure they are duly captured in the voters register.<\/p>\n
Describing the 2026 governorship election as pivotal to sustainable delivery of good governance in Osun state, the Governor called on voters who may have lost or misplaced their cards to get new ones, noting that \u201cWe all must exercise our voting right to sustain a listening and responsive administration in the state.<\/p>\n
\u201cI call on Osun residents outside the state to transfer their voting cards to the state and ensure mass participation for retention of people oriented leadership by August 2026. Our voting card is our weapon to prove that good governance is a possibility as Osun had been experiencing in the last two and half years.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe must not only update our details, we should ensure we vote and protect our votes when the time comes. We must be getting ready to stop electoral robbers if they ever attempt to thwart electoral wills of the people\u201d, the Governor was quoted as saying.<\/p>\n
Governor Adeleke charged all state officials and leaders of thought across the local governments to mobilise their people for the exercise even as he expresses optimism that the electoral commission will conduct a seamless operation in public interest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
