Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa Confidently Declares PDP “Finished” in Uplifting Speech Ahead of Ondo Gubernatorial Election

As the November 16th gubernatorial election in Ondo State draws near, Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa of the All Progressive Congress (APC) has made a bold declaration, asserting that the opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP) is “dead” in the state. Speaking during a campaign tour across several communities in the Ese-Odo council area, Aiyedatiwa urged the electorate not to waste their votes on the PDP, which he claimed no longer holds significant influence in the state.

Addressing residents of Igbobini, Kiribo, and Igbotu, the APC candidate thanked the people for their continued support and called on them to exercise their right to vote wisely. “I want to thank you for your patience and support. Come November 16, you must troop out en masse and vote for the APC to continue the development in our state,” he said. Aiyedatiwa emphasized that with key figures from the PDP now aligning with the APC, the ruling party remains the only viable option for sustained progress in Ondo.

Developmental Achievements Under Aiyedatiwa’s Administration

Governor Aiyedatiwa highlighted the significant strides his administration has made in developing Ondo State, citing investments in education, healthcare, and infrastructure. He reassured voters that his government is committed to doing more, particularly in areas such as road construction, school improvements, and hospital renovations. The governor also mentioned plans to hire more teachers to improve the quality of education across the state.

“We are employing more teachers and ensuring our schools, hospitals, and roads receive the attention they need. Our administration has also made Ondo a safer place for all,” Aiyedatiwa stated. He urged voters to recognize the positive changes brought about by his government and to ensure continuity by voting for the APC. “Your vote is your power; don’t waste it on parties that have no clear plan for the future of our state,” he added, warning that votes for other parties could derail ongoing development efforts.
