Eight governorship candidates of various political parties have declared support for the Ondo State Governor, Lucky Aiyedatiwa, ahead of the state gubernatorial election.
Naijaonpoint reports that Aiyedatiwa, the candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the election, stated this on Thursday in Akure during an interactive event organised by the Special Engagement Committee of the APC National Campaign Council.
Aiyedatiwa declared that the eight governorship candidates who declared support for him showed that the people of the state were with the APC.
The Governor appealed to his supporters not to relax until he is victorious in Saturday’s governorship election.
Aiyedatiwa said that the remaining hours before the election should be used to intensify the mobilisation drive towards delivering victory for the party.
He said, “We have only one agenda ahead of us; that is to deliver the victory on Saturday because we have campaigned across the state and listened to the plights of the people.
“Let us go back to our communities and continue the work; we must not be complacent; there are still works to be done and we must be ready to finish the work for ultimate victory.
“Just this morning, eight governorship candidates have declared support for us ahead of the election and that should tell us that the people are with us.”
The Governor added that when elected, he would deliver on his promises to the people towards the development of the state.
