By Boye Oyeyemi
Ondo State Governor, Lucky Aiyedatiwa, has urged residents to vote for President Bola Tinubu and other All Progressives Congress (APC) candidates in the 2027 general elections, saying continued support for the ruling party would sustain ongoing development projects.
The state Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Idowu Ajanaku, disclosed this in a statement on Friday, conveying the governor’s appreciation to residents for their large turnout at a rally organised in support of Tinubu’s re-election bid.
Aiyedatiwa commended Vice-President Kashim Shettima, members of the Federal Executive Council, APC leaders and supporters, as well as residents who participated in the rally. He also praised the peaceful conduct of the event, describing it as a demonstration of political maturity and tolerance.
The governor, however, urged eligible voters who were yet to collect their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) to do so promptly, stressing that the cards were essential for participating in the electoral process and exercising their constitutional rights.
He also called on residents to turn out in large numbers on election day to support Tinubu’s second-term ambition and other APC candidates contesting elective positions across the country.
According to the statement, ongoing Federal Government projects, including sections of the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Road, Ore-Ondo Road, Akure-Benin Road, Akure-Owo Road and Ilesa-Akure Road, are expected to improve transportation and stimulate economic activities in the state.
Aiyedatiwa said the projects would enhance connectivity and improve living conditions, adding that the continuation of Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda would help consolidate the gains of ongoing development interventions.
The governor also appealed to political stakeholders and residents to maintain peace, tolerance and respect for the law as the country approaches the 2027 elections. He thanked APC supporters for their commitment to the party’s campaign.
