Aderinokun got 214 votes in the primary election that was held Monday at Olusegun Obasanjo presidential library in Abeokuta.

The talk show host and mother of one congratulated her husband in a post on her Instagram page, saying she is proud to be his wife.

She went on to extol his virtues, describing him as a cheerful giver, whose compassion for others is admirable.

She wrote: “Kú oríire ọkọ mi, Olówó orí mi… this victory belongs to GOD. To say I’m proud to be your wife is an understatement. People that knew we were dating then, would always say one thing to me… “Olumide Aderinokun, ah he is a good guy” I would be like “yeah I know”. He’s a good guy, very giving, very humble and God-fearing.

“Little did I know there was more to this “good guy”. Akinruiyiwa, you are a rare breed.

“You are a cheerful giver, your compassion for others is admirable, You have already done so much to impact the lives of the good people of Abeokuta, I have faith in you that you will be a tool of positive change and improvement.

“You are the man of the people. My winner! Congratulations my incoming senator, I love you ❤️.”
