Senator Iyiola Omisore has urged his supporters to vote a candidate that believes in what the Social Democratic Party stand for which is good governance, social justice, and accountability.

This is coming after 72 hours of pressure from the People’s Democratic Party and the All Progressives Congress on Omisore.

The 61-year old said his alliance is with the people of Osun state irrespective of the political party they belong.

Omisore stressed that he wants Osun indigenes to be treated with the dignity they deserve and have a government that will be accountable to them

He said he told the parties that have solicited for his support to approach the electorate and ask for their mandate as I have assured them that I will not coerce them for political or social power.

In a statement released on Wednesday, Omisore said,

“Osun state has always been a stellar example of democracy where the people have consistently and freely expressed their franchise to determine who governs them.

“This should remain so. Osun people have shown that it is not business as usual. It is a positive deviation from what was hitherto the norm. I am telling my people that they should go with any political party that believes in what we in the SDP stand for; good governance, social justice, and accountability.

“I have already detailed how we planned to restore Osun to the path of good governance through the five thematic pillars in my manifesto I shared during the electioneering. I will not negotiate for personal gains and abandon my people.

“My alliance is with the people of Osun state irrespective of the political party they belong. I want my people to be treated with the dignity they deserve. I desire that they have a government that will be accountable to them. I want them to experience the good governance the founding fathers of this state envisaged.

“I have told the parties that have solicited for my support to approach the electorate and ask for their mandate as I have assured them that I will not coerce them for political or social power. It is because I have kept my promise that has made me enjoy their unalloyed support all these years.

“The fulcrum of my campaign was and is still the restoration of good governance and accountability to our dear state. I have consistently preached against voters coercion, I have voiced my stand against votes buying, voters intimidation, and politicisation.”
