“We have the mandate from our National President, Alhaji Musa Muhammed, to support the All Progressives Congress in the forthcoming gubernatorial election in Ondo State.
“Any member of our association found doing otherwise will be suspended,” he stated.
He further emphasised that the Governor’s visit to the association’s state secretariat on 2nd October marked the first time any sitting Governor had formally recognised the association.
“This has strengthened our belief in the leadership of His Excellency Hon. Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa, as he has proven himself to be a listener committed to advancing Ondo State to a position of envy,” Adewale added.
