Governor of the Year Award: Adeleke Vows to Take Osun To Greater Heights 

Governor Ademola Adeleke has vowed to deepen delivery of good governance to transform Osun state and satisfy the needs and aspirations of the people.

This comes after he received the Vanguard 2023 Governor of the Year Award at the 2023 Vanguard Personality of the Year Awards, held Friday at the Eko Hotels and Suites, Victoria Island, Lagos.

Governor Adeleke was recognised with the Good Governance Award and Governor of the Year – Infrastructure.

Speaking to journalists after the award ceremony,  Governor Adeleke described the award as “a testimony to his tireless efforts to deliver on his electoral pledges to the people of the state.”

According to Adeleke, the award which he dedicated to God and Osun people, is “a call to duty and a challenge for his administration to expand the space of delivery of dividends of democracy.

“As much as I am elated, I recognise that the work has just started. I am being challenged to beat my own records. If within one and half years, we are this recognised, then I must tighten my belt to further surpass the records our team has established.

“Let me note that this recognition came unexpectedly. I am gladdened by the process that led to the award. I commend Pa Sam Amuka and the entire Vanguard family for their commitment to good governance and excellence in public leadership.

“I am elected to serve my people and the state as a whole. I remain more passionate to deliver on our five point agenda and take Osun to greater heights,” he said.
