Abeokuta, Ogun State – With just days to the crucial bye-election in Ikenne/Sagamu/Remo North Federal Constituency, the African Democratic Congress (ADC) candidate, Hon. Solomon Osho, has declared with confidence that he will be announced as the winner on August 17, 2025.
Speaking at a media parley on Tuesday at the Iwe-Iroyin House in Oke-Ilewo, Abeokuta, the former Ogun State House of Assembly member expressed optimism that the people of the constituency will vote massively in his favour during the August 16 bye-election.
> “I’m confident, not complacent. I believe in the support of my people and in God’s grace. By August 17, I’ll be declared winner — not by chance, but by the will of the people,” he stated.
Hon. Osho emphasized that he stands out among the candidates due to his vast legislative experience and solid track record. He noted that while other contenders may be entering uncharted waters, he brings a wealth of experience from both local government and state legislative service.
> “We don’t need someone who’ll start learning how to facilitate projects from scratch. I’ve done this before. I’ve served at the local and state levels. I’m ready to serve at the federal level,” Osho said.
He described the ADC as Nigeria’s largest and most progressive party, expressing pride in flying its flag in the upcoming election.
> “Among all the candidates, none have held government office, none have legislative or executive experience, and none have a background in law. But I do — I’m a lawyer, a legislator, and a lawmaker. I am the best person for the job, and my people know it.”
Hon. Osho pledged to build on the legacy of the late Hon. Adewunmi Onanuga (Ijaya), whose death necessitated the bye-election.
He promised to prioritize:
Youth empowerment
Quality education
Infrastructural development
He assured constituents of impactful representation that would exceed their expectations.
