...take a cue from them, Abiodun charges other aspirants.
Odutayo Abiodun Iwogbe one of the top leading aspirants for the State House of Assembly slot from Ijebu North State Constituency and other top aspirants today declared their unflinching support for the reelection bid of the Ogun State governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun MFR
The aspirants who met and pledged their support for the governor on Thursday, in Abeokuta, the state capital, donated 500 Solar street lights to the state government.
In his remarks, while speaking on behalf of the donours, Abiodun Odutayo Iwogbe, noted that they would remain committed and loyal to the party in the state, assuring the governor that they would put in their best towards ensuring the success of Governor in 2023. He further iterated their delight in the Abiodun led administration, over the massive infrastructural development across the state, noting that the donation of the 500 Solar street lights was just the beginning of their support, with an assurance to make an impact in other areas that will be visible, all in support of the Governor.
Receiving the solar equipment, Governor Abiodun, commended the donors for their spirit of sportsmanship. He said the aspirants have displayed unparalleled commitment and loyalty to the party, even after they lost the party ticket.
"Odutayo Abiodun, Ademola Osofodunrin, Adeshina Oluwaseun and Adekunle are rare breeds of politicians, who despite losing the party ticket did not leave the APC. You all have become a reference point for others in our state".
"The gentlemen here who contested elections and they did not win, yet, they have demonstrated statesmanship. They have demonstrated unparalleled commitment, they have exemplified unequaled party loyalty and a deep sense of patriotism.
"This is extremely remarkable, I want to thank you on behalf of the entire party because what you have done is that you have shown leadership, by what you have done today, you will become a reference point," he said.
Abiodun while describing the act of the aspirants as selflessness, called on other aspirants to take a cue from them.
"I am hoping that other aspirants will look at you and emulate you, they don't have to go and invest in solar panels, but let them just see this disposition of yours and take a cue from it because it is not common. It is an uncommon wisdom that God has given you, when people contest and don't win, they just jump ship, you have done very well," the governor noted.
"I will not forget this gesture, this is the first of its kind since I have become governor, you are the first set of aspirants to donate to our course, I have received donations from campaign, vehicles by different local governments, but, this is the first donation I am receiving from aspirants towards this election," he said.
