Adeleke: I am dancing my way to government house
Unperturbed by being derogatively called the dancing senator, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate for the Osun State governorship election, Wednesday, vowed to dance his way to the Osun State Government House.
According to Adeleke, who stated this at an interactive session with Oduduwa Youth Development Initiative, he would win the election on Saturday and dance to Government House.
Adeleke, who said the APC-led government had inflicted hardship on the people, insisted on winning because of the support he enjoyed from the people throughout the state.
“I will dance to the Government House after winning Osun governorship election on Saturday.
“I have been tagged dancing Senator, but this shouldn’t be used against me because everybody dances. Have you seen someone who doesn’t dance? I am winning this election and I will dance to the Government House after that.
“When I was in the university overseas, I used to go for dancing competition. Although, I am a Nigerian, I still won dancing competitions which is the reason why I was nicknamed ‘Jackson,’ but my real name is Ademola Nurudeen Adeleke.”
The PDP candidate also criticised the educational policy of Governor Rauf Aregbesola’s administration, saying the unpaid salaries and school merger were some of the reasons for the poor performance of pupils of the state in public examinations.
He said: “Anybody who fails to pay his or her labourers is wicked and I can boldly say that the APC government is wicked for not paying its workers and pensioners in the state.
“The menace of non-payment of salary is responsible for the 29th position of this state in the ranking of WAEC; but when I get to power, I will turn it around by ensuring that the welfare of every worker in the state is catered for.
“The insensitivity of the All Progressives Congress government is responsible for the state where LAUTECH is today and it is evidently clear to the masses that the PDP government takes education as a priority.”
