According to him, APC deserves the votes of the people of Ondo State, going by the attention the state has been receiving.

“Your vote will be your voice, your convictions, and your message to those who underestimate the strength and will of the people of Ondo State.

“I’m bringing you good tidings from President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. He ought to have been here, but the exigencies of the office compelled him to ask the high-level delegation to come and represent him in the Sunshine State,” he said.
