The Governor of Oyo State, Engr. Seyi Makinde, has urged the people of Ondo to vote out the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the Saturday’s November 16 governorship election in the state.
Makinde described the moment as a crucial opportunity for Ondo State electorates to drive meaningful change.
The urge was contained in a newsletter released on Thursday. It is titled “It’s Time to Make a Bold Statement”.
The governor called on supporters of good governance to cast their votes for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), emphasising the party’s potential to address Nigeria’s challenges.
Makinde believes the PDP is the party capable of rescuing the nation from its current economic difficulties, citing developmental strides in PDP-led states as evidence.
“Let me begin by encouraging everyone in Ondo to come out this Saturday and make a bold statement in the Ondo State elections. Let all supporters of good governance stand up and say enough of the APC and its lack of people-centred policies. It is time for Nigerians to rally behind the PDP as the party that can help Nigeria overcome the economic challenges it faces.
“I want to remind you that Ondo is a litmus test for Nigerians to show that their hunger and anger can bring about real change. Tell everyone you know that the PDP is the party that can rescue Nigeria. If you are still undecided, look at all the efforts being made by PDP governors for their people. Just yesterday, we presented our Budget of Economic Stabilisation.
“As always, it was a people-first budget. Based on data from previous years, there is a 7:10 chance of us successfully implementing the items in the budget. So, the people of Oyo State can expect more infrastructure development, more educational projects, and greater economic progress.
“In conclusion, economically, we look forward to better times in 2025. We just have to keep pushing and making the right decisions in the overall interest of our people and our nation,” Makinde stated.
