Senator Ademola Adeleke has been sworn in as the governor of Osun State in a ceremony attended by top dignitaries and hundreds of residents.
In the ceremony held at the Osogbo City Stadium in the Osun State capital on Sunday, Adeleke promised to serve the people and tackle the challenges facing the state.
While pledging to reduce the poverty rate and deliver dividends of democracy to the people, he said it is no longer business as usual in the state.
His inauguration, which was attended by top members of his party – the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) – including Atiku Abubakar and his running mate Ifeanyi Okowa, also saw his superstar nephew David Adeleke better known as Davido making a first public appearance since his son Ifeanyi’s death.
