The Movement for Yewa Awori For Governor (MOYAG) has pledged to support any candidate from Governor Ibikunle Amosun with the sum of N25 million to campaign for gubernatorial race in 2019.
The pledge was made by Mr Sola Oyekanmi, Chairman of MOYAG during a press conference held today at the NUJ Secretariat, Oke Ilewo Abeokuta, Ogun State.
The movement commended the Ogun state governor for his unflinching support to Ogun West senatorial district to produce the next governor of the state.
He said MOYAG is ready to support any aspirants of Governor Amosun’s choice from Ogun west senatorial district and support the campaign with a minimum of N25 Million.
He said his movement would begin to sensitise and encourage participation in the electoral process within the senatorial district to achieve the set objective, come 2019.
He lamented that since the creation of the state over forty years ago, no indigene of Ogun west senatorial district has governed the state.
”It is not that we lack competency in our zone. Also this political imbalance has seen other senatorial districts benefit more infrastructural development than the senatorial district. The movement is willing to support anyone and all credible efforts to ensure that next governor of Ogun state comes from our senatorial district.
”MOYAG hereby states that when governor Amosun delivers his promise, the entire people of Ogun west senatorial district will be very grateful and it will be recorded in history as the most significant pillar of support for Yewa Awori people towards our pursuit for development and political advancement,” Oyekanmi stated.
