Ondo APC vows to surpass 2023 record, targets landslide victory for Tinubu
By Boye Oyeyemi
The All Progressives Congress in Ondo State has pledged to deliver a more decisive victory for President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 general elections than the historic margin it secured during the 2023 presidential poll.
To kick-off this momentum, Vice-President Kashim Shettima will lead a high-profile delegation of governors, ministers, and lawmakers to a major presidential campaign rally at the Akure Township Stadium on Wednesday.
Disclosing the development at the Nigeria Union of Journalists Press Centre in Akure, the Director-General of the state’s campaign council, Victor Olabimtan, confirmed that the party’s election machinery was now fully activated under Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa.
Furthermore, Olabimtan stressed that securing an even larger triumph would demand heightened grassroots mobilization, strict internal discipline, and absolute unity across all 18 local government areas.
Consequently, he urged party members to set aside personal political differences and align behind a shared vision to ensure total success at the polls.
Highlighting the tangible benefits of the current administration, the campaign chief pointed to key federal infrastructure initiatives, including the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway and the Olokola Deep Seaport project.
In addition, he noted that major appointments for Ondo indigenes—such as cabinet posts for Taiwo Oyedele, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, and Ayodele Olawande—alongside healthcare investments like the FUTA Teaching Hospital, would feature prominently in their appeal to voters.
While acknowledging the temporary economic hardships caused by recent federal reforms, Olabimtan maintained that these measures were essential for long-term structural stability, framing Wednesday’s rally as merely the opening salvo in a sustained statewide campaign.
