The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Ganduje, has called on the people of Ondo State to support Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa in his re-election campaign, advocating for continuity in his progressive leadership. Ganduje made this appeal during the inauguration of the APC Governorship Campaign Council in Akure, which is led by Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
Highlighting Aiyedatiwa’s achievements, Ganduje described them as a testament to the APC’s “progressive ideology.” He urged Ondo residents to mobilize and ensure victory for the party in the upcoming election, promising to sustain the administration’s development agenda across both urban and rural areas. “Governor Aiyedatiwa is a symbol of progressive leadership,” Ganduje stated. “Ondo State is fortunate to have him, and it’s crucial to ensure the region’s alignment with our party’s vision. We are committed to a fair and transparent election, which will showcase the support he enjoys among the people.”
Campaign Council’s Endorsement
Governor Sanwo-Olu, the chairman of the campaign council, commended Aiyedatiwa’s dedication and accomplishments during his first 305 days in office. He noted that Aiyedatiwa’s record of projects and achievements makes the re-election campaign straightforward. “Our campaign will focus on issues, not sentiments or insults,” Sanwo-Olu asserted. “With Aiyedatiwa’s legacy of impactful projects, we can confidently assure Ondo citizens of a brighter future. He has shown, in less than a year, his dedication to development that uplifts communities.”
Aiyedatiwa: A Vision for Growth
Addressing the gathering, Aiyedatiwa expressed gratitude for the trust the Ondo people have shown him, pledging to continue improving their lives through initiatives in infrastructure, agriculture, education, and social welfare. “This election is a defining moment for our state and party,” Aiyedatiwa said. “Our party’s journey in Ondo is an open book of unity, vision, and progress. We have consistently listened to the people, and they see the sincerity in our approach.” The governor highlighted key achievements, including road projects, timely salary payments, support for entrepreneurs, educational grants, and youth empowerment initiatives.
Party Leaders Confident in Victory
Isaac Kekemeke, the APC’s National Vice Chairman (South-West), and Ade Adetimehin, the Ondo State APC Chairman, both expressed optimism about Aiyedatiwa’s re-election chances, citing strong local support that has “intimidated” opposition candidates. Adetimehin emphasized, “Governor Aiyedatiwa’s popularity and his dedication to serving Ondo people make us confident of a landslide victory.”
With a robust campaign structure in place, APC leaders reaffirmed their commitment to ensuring a peaceful election on November 16, where they hope Aiyedatiwa’s achievements will resonate with voters across the state
