Osun State Governor, Mr Adegboyega Oyetola has come out to say that women are the most reliable people in politics.

He recently revealed this during a programme held in Government House tagged “Osun Women Prays” where inter-religious groups of Muslims and Christians faithful prayed for the governor to mark his second anniversary in Office.

According to him, our ladies are very consistent in everything they do and will never let people down once they stand by them.

He then hailed women in the state for organising a prayer session to mark his second anniversary in office, telling them that their gesture is symbolic.

His words, “The prayers mean a lot to me. The women in Osun decided to pray for me and it is timely because of the second-anniversary celebration, this is very symbolic. I lived on prayers.

“Women are very passionate and when it comes to politics they play a vital role, they are the most consistent people you can see in politics, if they are with you they won’t let you down. I respect and appreciate them.

“We will keep our promises to you and I want to implore you to keep supporting our administration.”
