State Chairman of All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ondo State, Engr Ade Adetimehin, on Saturday, mobilised executives of the party across the 18 local government areas of the state to the sensitization rally organised by Lagos State for the party’s Presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Adetimehin, who monitored the party executives to the Teslim Balogun stadium at Surulere, Lagos, stated that his state contingent would have been larger if it were the real campaign rally for the Jagaban of Borgu.
According to him, “We only mobilised the executives of our party at the local government level to go and represent Ondo State at the sensitization rally organised by Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu for our presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as a preamble to our mega rally.
“By the time we are going to kick off our campaign across the nation, we shall all go out in full force to campaign ward to ward, house to house to enlighten the populace about the qualities and enviable track records of our presidential candidate so that they can elect someone who can solve the nation’s problems.”
Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu had organised the sensitization rally ahead of the kick-off of the mega rally of the party in order to arm members of the party with critical evidence of what to showcase to undecided voters about Tinubu.
Strong chieftains of the party, including the 22 members of APC Governors’ Forum, stormed the stadium filled to capacity to lend their voice to why Nigerians should elect Tinubu as the successor of President Muhammadu Buhari.

In his address, Governor Sanwo-Olu emphasised that Tinubu was the brain behind the meteoric development that was happening in Lagos.
He declared Tinubu as the best man for the job of President.
The Lagos governor said Tinubu had the economic masterpiece to turn the nation’s economy round and had the penchant for assembling best brains in different fields to develop the nation.
“Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has laid a solid foundation for Lagos and that’s what you’re still seeing happening in Lagos.
“He is the most most qualified among all the contestants. He has the qualities and charisma to turn round our economy. He had done in Lagos and youvcan all testify.
“We want Nigerians to elect him the next president of our nation so that we can benefit from his wealth of experience,” Sanwo-Olu said.
In his address, Governor Ganduje called on Nigerians to elect Tinubu as the next president of the nation in 2023 because of overwhelming track records of good governance.
He said Tinubu had all the years prepared for the assignment to take the country to a higher ground.
Delivering President Muhammadu Buhari’s message, Ganduje said: “Lagosians, President Muhammadu Buhari sent his message to you that I should tell you to remain focus and give Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu more support than you gave him in 2015 and elect him the next President of Nigeria.”
