Buhari, APC chieftains assure of peaceful election in Ondo

 

President Muhammadu Buhari has assured Nigerians and the international community that the October 10, 2020 governorship election in Ondo State would be credible, peaceful and transparent.

Buhari said this in a video message to party supporters at the grand finale of the All Progressives Congress (APC) campaign held in Akure, yesterday.

He declared that all necessary measures had been put in place to provide adequate security to forestall any breach of the peace by unscrupulous elements. He also expressed confidence that the party supporters would vote according to the laws guiding the electoral process, urging the electorate to turn out en masse to vote without fear of molestation.

According to him: “I have no doubt that our candidate is a good brand for the APC to market. I am particularly delighted by his ingenious approach to governance. His performance within the limits of available resources is endearing, just as he has taken the state to an enviable level and on the path of prosperity. Having had the privilege of commissioning some of his projects, which I consider enduring legacies, I join you here today to declare that Governor Akeredolu deserves to be re-elected to consolidate the good work he commenced in his first term.

“I am not just proud of his achievements, I am confident he will enjoy the mandate of the good people of Ondo State for the second term.”
