The Governor of Osun State, Ademola Adeleke has said he will grab any opporturnity to become the President of Nigeria.
According to him, this is because he is qualified and competent to be the President of Nigeria.
In an interview with Arise News, Adeleke said his future political ambitions and plans for the future when he leaves his seat as governor are in God’s hands.
He said, “I’m qualified to be the president of Nigeria, so why not? If God says that it’s time for me to become president, I will grab it and take care of my people. I’m not going to say no, anything can happen.”
Speaking further, the governor stated that he is working round the clock to make sure that Osun is seen as a great state.
He added that he has so far provided palliative measures to alleviate the challenges that the people may face, as well as commenced works that he has in mind for the development of the state.
He said: “I’ve already formed a lot of committees and they are bringing everything. I’m working 24/7 to make sure that Osun is great.
“I inherited a huge debt, about almost forty-something billion. So I started paying them half salary slowly, little by little. I think I have paid about four times now, the fifth one is coming. And then, the pensioners, I’m paying them too… I gave them free medical care and all that. So that’s part of the palliatives to cushion. Even the health care.”
