The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has made a strategic move that is set to revolutionize the political landscape of Ondo State.
The party has selected Hon. Festus Akingbaso, a seasoned and accomplished member of the House of Representatives representing Idanre/Ifedore Federal Constituency, as the Deputy Governorship candidate.
This well-planned and informed decision is expected to strengthen the party’s position in the upcoming election. Akingbaso, affectionately known to his supporters as ‘Fessy West’, brings a wealth of experience, expertise, and grassroots support to the ticket, making him an ideal complement to the PDP gubernatorial candidate, Hon. Alfred Agboola Ajayi.
The combination of Ajayi’s visionary leadership and Akingbaso’s grassroots appeal is poised to create a formidable force that will drive the party’s success in the polls. Ajayi, a seasoned administrator and respected leader, has a proven track record of achievements in both the public and private sectors. His vision for the state is built on a foundation of transparency, accountability, and sustainable development.
Akingbaso, on the other hand, has been a vocal advocate for the people of Idanre/Ifedore Federal Constituency, championing their causes and delivering tangible results.
His dedication to the welfare of his constituents has earned him their trust and admiration.
Together, Ajayi and Akingbaso are poised to make a significant impact in the state, driving economic growth, improving infrastructure, and enhancing the quality of life for all citizens.
Their partnership is a testament to the PDP’s commitment to building a strong and inclusive leadership team that can deliver good governance to the people.
The Ajayi/Akingbaso combo is expected to resonate with the electorate, who are eager for a change from the status quo.
Their campaign promises to focus on the welfare of the people, creating jobs, improving healthcare and education, and ensuring that the state’s resources are used for the benefit of all.
With their combined strengths, the PDP is confident that it can tackle the challenges facing the state and create a brighter future for all citizens. The party is poised to run a campaign that will be issue-based, people-centered, and focused on delivering results.
