Ondo guber: Aiyedatiwa campaign group calls for unity among APC members

Ahead of the governorship election in Ondo State, the Lucky Aiyedatiwa Campaign Organisation Foot Soldiers Independent Council (LACO-FSIC) has called for unity and sincerity of purpose for the All Progressive Party (APC) to achieve victory in the November governorship election in the state.

The group’s Director on Diaspora Matters, Hon. Dare Aliu, who made this call on Wednesday, urged Governor Aiyedatiwa to bring all party members together and ensure inclusive government.

Aliu however, who stressed the need for party faithful to form a united front in achieving victory said this should be a major talking point among party leaders in recent times.

He noted that the latest appointments of Special Advisers and Senior Special Assistants, cut across the three senatorial districts was a clear indication that Aiyedatiwa believes in inclusive governance.

“Contrary to recent insinuations, the governor has shown that his administration encourages full participation of all stakeholders within the party and among professionals and gifted individuals across the state.

“He sees the entire state as his constituency and is determined to bring competent interest groups on board, to make him attain his goals of providing needed infrastructure and enhancing human empowerment in all communities that compose the three senatorial districts of Ondo State,” Aliu stated.

While congratulating the new appointees, he tasked them to deliver on the various beats assigned to them, assuring the governor of the full support of Ondo State indigenes in the Diaspora.

The Akure-born politician who currently resides in the United States of America, said that plans were in top gear, in the ranks of indigenes in the Diaspora to work with the governor in bringing foreign investors to boost the industrial growth of Ondo State.

He said “We had had useful discussions with the governor and he was excited about assurances from prospective foreign investors, apparently for the purpose of job creation and industrial growth, which will ultimately make a positive impact on the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) rating of our dear country Nigeria,”

He, however, assured the governor of the full support of the Central Senatorial District, especially his Akure community, in the governorship election coming up on November 16, this year.
