Ondo State People Gave Governor Aiyedatiwa His Victory, Not Tinubu – Ganduje

The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Abdullahi Ganduje has come out to dismiss claims that President Bola Tinubu influenced the victory of Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa in the Ondo State governorship election.

He recently had his say when he received the Ondo governor and his deputy, Adelami Olaide, with their Certificates of Return at the APC National Secretariat in Abuja.

According to him, Aiyedatiwa’s victory was made possible by the entire people of the state who voted en masse for the governor across the 18 Local Government Areas in Ondo, so no one else should take their credit.

He added that there was no subterranean support from any quarters, and no external influence from the Federal Government.

His words, “There was no subterranean support from any quarters. No external influence from the government, the Presidency or any other external forces. The election is not the efforts of the elite alone. It is not the efforts of the middle class alone, it is the efforts of also the grassroots alone.

This must be an issue that was embraced by all. You enjoyed the support of the state electorate. We have to congratulate you on this landslide victory. I know Ondo people are progressives which was why they will cooperate with you.”

WOW.
