With the official announcement of the election result on Tuesday, 28th of February, 2023, it was clear that the people have had their say. The overriding beauty of democracy is the concept of majority view. As a democrat which Rt. Hon. Abdel-Majid Adesegun Adekoya is, he is of the firm opinion that no matter how unpalatable it may seem, the decision of the majority always prevail.
Attacker as fondly called, believes that electoral process remains the barometer to measure the people’s will in a democracy. Hence, his acceptance of the result in good faith. In Ogun state today, he is clearly the only House of Reps candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) who is not challenging the election result at the tribunal.
He served and he is letting others do same without any form of obstruction which could deter them from delivering on their primary assignments, as he hands over the baton of effective and people-based representation.
He may not have won the election but the truth is, he won the hearts of the good people of Ijebu North, Ijebu East & Ogun Waterside through his enviable style of leadership and unrivalled performance as a federal legislator. Whenever and wherever his name is mentioned, what comes to mind is quality representation, as testified to, by the entire people of the gateway state.
