Bankole Taiwo, Abeokuta
The Governor of Ogun State, Prince Dapo has said that the residents of the State can trust him for another term of four years, because his government has always kept faith with the campaign promises of working for the betterment of the people of the State.
Gov. Dapo Abiodun said this on Monday when his second term campaign train visited Odogbolu local government area of the State
On the campaign train of the Governor is his deputy, Engr Noimot Salako-Oyedele, former governor, Chief Segun Osoba, three former Deputy governors in the State; Mrs Yetunde Onanuga, Alhaja Salmot Badru, Sen Gbenga Kaka, Sen Lekan Mustapha among others.
The Governor during the campaign also commissioned 18km Ejinrin-Idowa-Ibefun-Itokin road.
Abiodun during the commissioning said the construction of the road was part of the deliberate efforts of his government to improve on mobility and ease of doing business in the State.
Addressing thousands of residents of the local government area and members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) at Atiba, the Governor disclosed that it was difficult for him to convince people to vote for him in 2019 because there was nothing so convincing on the ground and he had to resort to begging the people for votes to eventually secure victory at the poll.
Abiodun however said that he was grateful to God for the grace to keep faith with the promises made while seeking to be the Governor in the State, saying that the numerous projects dotting everywhere in the State as executed by his administration just confirmed that he is not that type of Governor who take the people for granted.
He said his government had constructed over 1,000 blocks of classrooms, about 1,300 affordable housing units, over 400km of roads including the newly dualised Ijebu Ode/Epe expressway, the 18km Idowa-Ala-Ibefun road commissioned, rehabilitation of primary healthcare centres across the State, among many other life changing projects.
Gov. Abiodun disclosed that he was ready to consolidate on his achievements in the last three and half years, calling on the people of the local government area to troop out in their thousands on March 11, 2023 to vote for him and return him for another term of four years.
The Governor equally urged the people of the council area to vote for the party’s presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu on February 25, as well as other candidates of the party, saying that the ruling party remain dedicated to addressing yearnings of Nigerians.
A member of National Youth Mobilisation, Southwest, of the Presidential Campaign Council of the ruling party, Omooba Adekunle Ayoola who is also from the local government area, during the campaign described the choice of Gov Abiodun for another term as well as Asiwaju Bola Tinubu presidential aspiration as one that the people will never regret.
Ayoola said that “Gov. Abiodun has no doubt been fantastic with governance in the State. He has quietly been working all around the State to ensure development across all the sectors of the economy, be it education, healthcare, housing, agriculture, among others. So, he no doubt deserves another term. And for Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the truth is that the political icon has all it takes to fix the country and it is one choice Nigerians won’t regret.”
