ACTION Democratic Party (ADP) has formally picked a successful businessman and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Aeroland Group of Companies, Otunba Segun Adewale, as its flagbearer for the July 14th governorship election coming up in Ekiti State.

This was just as the newly emerged candidate immediately rolled out a 7-point Agenda to be implemented once he was voted into office, declaring that “a new and prosperous Ekiti is here,” while emphasizing the party’s focus on creating wealth for the people.

Adewale, widely known as OSAPraPra, emerged as the party’s flagbearer in the primary conducted over the weekend in line with the Option A4 adopted by the party as well as in compliance with the Electoral Act and the laid down guidelines of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

A release made available to newsmen by ADP governorship candidate through his director of Media and Public Communications, Prince Adelaja Adeoye, said the final results of the exercise showed that Adewale scored 16,890 votes out of the total votes of 17,600, which is 96% of all the votes cast at various wards across the 16 local government in Ekiti State and has since been presented with the certificate of return by the party as the flagbearer ahead of July 14th election.

It disclosed that the primary was conducted by the combined of national and state officers of the party and observed by INEC officials.

The release added that national officers that handled the exercise were led by ADP National Organizing Secretary, Dr Lynn Olisa, saying that they include National Publicity Secretary, Otunba Fatoyinbo, Chief Mrs Nike Jones, among others.

ADP governorship candidate, while speaking shortly after the party primary, said he was poised to repositioning the state’s educational sector to regain its rightful place as the number one state in intellectualism in Nigeria, offsetting all outstanding payments owed by the state government to its workers and fixing power within the state to re-invent the business environment as part of his 7-point agenda if voted as the next governor of Ekiti State.

Adewale, who reiterated that his concerned to address the sufferings of the people and bring succour to the people made him throw himself to the race, said he was also determined to re-invite all the businesses that had left Ekiti State due to high charges or political considerations and immediately restore their confidence in the state.

According to him, doing this will start bringing back the jobs that were long lost, even as promised to make the state a medicare destination by building specialized hospitals that would cater for the health needs of Nigerians and generate revenue for the state, while providing healthcare solutions for the people of Ekiti at subsidized rates.

The ADP flagbearer, while promising to revive agriculture in the state, a development that would witness the rebirth of “Igbimo Rice” that “will become a sensation all over Africa and the world,” said part of his Agenda would be to create vocational centers that would be situated in all the three senatorial districts of the state.

According to him, such locations will be “where residents can acquire skills in various fields of their choice and then be supported by the government through soft loans for startup.”


He, therefore, charged Ekiti people to vote massively for his party, ADP at the polls to bring in order to bring about a paradigm shift in the governing and running of the state.
