The South West leadership of All Progressives Congress, (APC) has expressed deep appreciation to the people of Ondo State for coming out in large numbers to vote for the APC candidate, Arakunrin Rotimi Akeredolu
Akeredolu took a clear and unambiguous victory at the October 10 gubernatorial election
In a statement on Sunday, the APC Zonal Publicity Secretary in the South West, Rt Hon Oladapo Karounwi, said the people of Ondo State have spoken clearly and loudly in a peaceful, credible and transparent election.
Karounwi said ” The new and fresh mandate given to APC in Ondo State is an endorsement of the APC and Akeredolu’s performance in the last four years. It is also a challenge for an improved performance during his second term. The Party, and indeed, Akeredolu, will neither disappoint nor betray the trust and confidence of the people of Ondo State.”
According to him “APC will not cede an inch of its Political base and territory in the South West to the opposition PDP or any other political party. Rather, it will continue to consolidate on its gains in the five APC controlled States in the zone. The Party will also reclaim Oyo State, which it lost by default in 2019 come 2023 by God’s Grace!”
He commended INEC and the security agencies for their professional conduct before, during and after the election in Ondo State.”
Karounwil said Akeredolu’s election has confirmed the dominance of APC in the South West adding that the party has distinguished itself through its people-driven socio-economic programmes
