Ademola is a walk-over in Osun West — Hussain

- From Hameed Oyegbade, Osogbo

The candidate of the All Progressiv­es Congress (APC) for the July 8 Osun West Senatorial by-election, Senator Mudasiru Hussain, has said that the candidate of the PDP, Mr. Ademola Adeleke, cannot do better than his late elder brother, Senator Isiaka Adeleke.

Speaking on a current affairs programme on Rave FM in Osogbo, yesterday, Hussain said his political antecedent­s, pedigree and wide experience were enough to floor Dr. Ademola.

He described the PDP candidate as, “an inexperien­ced politician leveraging on the antecedent­s of his late brother.

“Even when his late brother, Sen Isiaka Adeleke, was alive, I defeated him in 2007 but was rigged out. I defeated him with a huge margin in 2011 when he congratula­ted me with a written letter which I have with me,” he said.
