Ondo Poll: The Next Plot Is To Take Over Oyo and Osun States – Ganduje
Alhaji Abdullahi Ganduje, National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), said plans to take over the Oyo and Osun States were underway.
In an interview with newsman after the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared Governor Lucky Ayedatiwa the winner of the just decided Ondo election, Gandue said he was pleased that the Ondo people showed their love for the ruling party through the vote.
He said the elections were free, fair and credible and thanked INEC, security agencies, the media and civil society organizations for their contributions to the success of the movement.
“There is no doubt this is a moment of joy. Seeing is believing and this is democracy in action. But what is more important is that all the major stakeholders believe that the election was free, fair and credible, especially INEC who provided the logistics arrangement and manpower.”
“The police, DSS, Civil Defence, military, the media, international organisations, international observers. Almost everybody believes that this election is free, fair and credible and what is important to the people of Ondo state is that since they elected APC, they elected our candidate, there would be continuity in government. There would be no abandonment of projects. There would be sustainability of programmes/projects.
“I congratulate the candidate himself because he is a product that is sellable. We are lucky that we have succeeded in selling him to the members of the public. We have to congratulate Mr President for providing an enabling environment.
“Our next target in the South West Geopolitical zone is Osun and Oyo states. You know we are good at hitting the target. We will do what is possible to bring them into the fold so that we can have more political opportunity in the South West Geopolitical zone.”
Didactic Information Hut recalls that Alhaji Ganduje had ealier vowed to ensure that the entire South West is taken over by the APC.
