Its therefore imperative that all the registered 17 Political Parties in the state should sponsor or take part in anything that will drag the state backward.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSuffice to say, with the Governorship election just a few months away, it is critical that we preserve a peaceful and orderly environment. The planned protest has the potential to incite violence and civil unrest, which could significantly disrupt the electoral process slated for the 16th of November 2024. All the Political parties in the state must focus on fostering a calm and stable atmosphere conducive enough till the slated date of the election in a bid to have a free and fair elections.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlso, the economic ramifications of large-scale protests can be severe. As Ondo State works towards economic recovery and growth through credible intervention programmes of the Governor Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa led administration, it is essential to avoid actions that could disrupt business activities and economic stability. Political parties should consider the long-term economic health of our state and refrain from participating in actions that could lead to economic hardship for our residents.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the wake of ongoing public health concerns, particularly related to airborne diseases and Cholera as its outbreak has recently been confirmed in states in the southwest, large gatherings can pose significant health risks. The safety and well-being of our citizens should remain at top priority. Engaging in mass protests at this juncture could lead to a resurgence of infections, placing an undue burden on our healthcare system and endangering lives.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ondo: Aiyedatiwa\u2019s aide urges political party members to shun protest<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Special Adviser to Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa of Ondo State on Inter-Party Affairs, Barrister Fadeshola Ojamomi has declared that the planned&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":44707,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[22625,277,15,1803],"tags":[473,22627,22626,289,281,180,1806,624,285,600,3383,448],"class_list":["post-44706","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ayedatiwa","category-ipac","category-news","category-ondo","tag-aide","tag-aiyedatiwas","tag-ayedatiwa","tag-ipac","tag-members","tag-news","tag-ondo","tag-party","tag-political","tag-protest","tag-shun","tag-urges"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nigerdeltanews.ng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44706","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nigerdeltanews.ng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nigerdeltanews.ng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nigerdeltanews.ng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nigerdeltanews.ng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=44706"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/nigerdeltanews.ng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44706\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nigerdeltanews.ng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/44707"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nigerdeltanews.ng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=44706"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nigerdeltanews.ng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=44706"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nigerdeltanews.ng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=44706"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
