The Imole Campaign Council (TICC) has described the victory of Governor Ademola Adeleke in the just concluded Osun State gubernatorial election not as an end in itself but as a renewed responsibility to serve, listen and unite the people of the state.
The council, in a statement at the weekend, said the victory had further strengthened its responsibility to deliver on the aspirations of the people, ensuring that the trust placed in Imole’s vision would not be taken for granted.
TICC stressed that Osun could only achieve significant progress through togetherness, unity and collective commitment, and urged residents to work across political, religious, ethnic and generational divides to build a state that all can be proud of.
In the statement signed by its Director General and Secretary, Senator Lere Oyewumi and Prince Bola Ajao respectively, the council said the victory belonged first to Almighty God and the people of Osun State.
He described the victory as a reflection of his confidence in Imole’s vision and his desire for continued progress, development and good governance.
The council expressed its gratitude to royal fathers and traditional rulers across the state for their wisdom, advice and prayers, noting that their leadership remained crucial to the peace and development of communities.
He also recognized Christian and Muslim religious leaders for their prayers and commitment to peace, unity and well-being of the State.
TICC commended the party members and their loyal supporters for their resilience, dedication and steadfastness, which it said contributed significantly to the success recorded at the polls.

He praised state workers for their commitment to keeping Osun running, while applauding youth groups and students for bringing energy, ideas and hope for the future to the campaign.
The council further saluted non-indigenous communities for their contributions to the economic and social development of Osun, highlighting that the strength of the state remained rooted in the diversity, enterprise and collective efforts of all those who call it home.
