Following the emergence of Lucky Aiyedatiwa as the flag-bearer of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the forthcoming Ondo State gubernatorial election, he has extended an olive branch to his opponents by calling for unity in his recently delivered acceptance speech.
While APC gubernatorial candidate, Gov. Aiyedatiwa, thanked all the aspirants who contested against him for the party ticket during his speech, he also acknowledged their contributions to enrich the democratic process and strengthen the party in the state.
However, Aiyedatiwa emphasized the need for unity within the party, stating, “Democracy sometimes, after a contest like this, comes with discordant tunes.
“But this is not the time to hold grudges against anyone but for all of us to come together to work for the success of our great party so as to remain in power.”
He expressed gratitude to the President and Leader of the APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, as well as other party leaders, stakeholders, and members for their support and endorsement.
Emphasizing on the importance of unity, the governor said, “Now, more than ever before, the greatness of Ondo State is what matters the most. I, therefore, request that we all join hands together in building the future that we all yearn for in Ondo State,” Aiyedatiwa said.
