Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has announced that the ruling party aims to secure control of the South West by triumphing in the upcoming off-cycle gubernatorial election in Ondo State on November 16.

Ganduje made this announcement while leading the National Working Committee (NWC) of the APC at a stakeholders’ meeting held in Akure, the capital of the state, on Sunday.

He said, “In this geopolitical zone, we must deliver 100 percent in favour of APC. Therefore, Ondo State, you must be the forefrontl the two other states – Oyo and Osun – we will capture them, but I will not reveal our secret. We are strategising. Everything must be 100 per cent behind President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

“In this coming election, we are solidly behind Governor Aiyedatiwa. We have made arrangements at the national level to have a successful election and I announce Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu as the Chairman National Campaign Council.

“This election is a task that must be done. We are encouraged by this large crowd of stakeholders. It shows there is unity, solidarity, and vigour in the party. We are expecting 90 percent votes in the forthcoming governorship election. You have to visit house to house. Neighbour to neighbour and ensure that people come out to vote.

“Let me remind those who contested the primary election with Aiyedatiwa that are not losers because there is no victor, no vanquish in the exercise.”
