Arise Television personality Rufai Oseni has forecasted a violent outcome for the upcoming Osun State gubernatorial election. During a Tuesday broadcast, Oseni stated that it would be miraculous for Governor Ademola Adeleke to secure a victory, citing the intense influence of federal power.
Oseni emphasized that federal intervention remains the primary variable in the electoral process. He encouraged residents of Osun to remain vigilant and proactive. Expressing alarm regarding potential unrest, Oseni noted that reports of physical altercations have already surfaced in the days leading up to the vote.
The journalist described the situation as precarious, suggesting that the combination of federal pressure and the presence of a strong third-party candidate creates a difficult environment for the incumbent. Based on historical election data, Oseni concluded that these factors generally do not bode well for Adeleke.
