President Bola Tinubu’s Special Assistant on Social Media has effectively declared Hon. Dele Oshinowo as the winner of the Kosofe House of Representatives primary, writing: “Today, I am very pleased and happy to join my brother, my friend and my leader, Dr Muritala Seriki, as he meets with Hon. Dele Oshinowo, the APC candidate for Kosofe House of Reps.”

The wording leaves no room for doubt. By referring to Oshinowo as “the APC candidate,” the President’s aide has confirmed that the race is over and Oshinowo has secured the party’s ticket for the Kosofe federal constituency.
