Governor Adebayo Alao-Akala of Oyo State has congratulated the governor-elect of the state, the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN’s) Senator Abiola Ajimobi, on his  victory in Tuesday’s gubernatorial election in the state.

Governor Alao-Akala, in a press release he personally signed and which was made available to the Nigerian Tribune on Thursday, said, he wished  the governor-elect, from the bottom of  his heart,  a successful tenure and more importantly, God’s guidance in the next four years.

The release which also congratulated the people of the state for their exemplary conduct during the period said though bickering and tough words were exchanged in the weeks leading to the election, the governor and the governor-elect were able to grapple with the difference between personal foes and political opposition.

“To my mind, we both desire to serve our people; therefore, the hot exchanges were a reflection of our individual views on burning issues concerning the development of our state, rather than anything personal”, it read.

The governor said his statement was necessary to stem further tension in the state, so that the people could get on with their lives, adding that, “without an iota of doubt, we have engineered a profound legacy that should make it easier for the in-coming administration to hold on.

“We did this by putting the state first in all our decisions and this is reflected in the unassailable achievements we have had in the past four years”, the statement said.
