A governship aspirant under the platform of Africa Democratic Congress (ADC), Gboyega Isiaka has assured that Ogun State will be best governed if he is elected governor in next year’s election.
He made this known on Thursday while speaking with journalists at Obafemi Owode LG of the state during the grand finale of his tour to one of the largest federal constituencies.
The frontline aspirant was in company of his wife, Toyin Isiaka and many party chieftains.
“I appreciate the spirit of everyone here for standing in the rain. It is an uncommon display of support for our party and exhibition of strong will to establish a new narrative in our state,” he said.
He added that with his manifesto and that of the ADC being in agreement, the party was well positioned to offer good governance to the people, restore the dignity of citizens, wipe away the frustrations and poverty in the country by the current APC administration.
He applauded the massive turnout of party faithfuls and the general public that defied heavy rain and stood throughout the open air rally.
“Even though I have moved around a lot in recent months, this is the first outing with the ADC as a gubernatorial aspirant on its platform. Since Tuesday that we started this consultative tour, I have seen loud indices of underdevelopment across the local governments visited.
“It is shameful and sad. Things can be improved here, especially with the potentials around this areas. We are taking a good look at getting maximum benefits out of our closeness to Lagos. Hence, development of border towns is one of the seven main focus of the coming governments which we call 7 steps to Abundance.
“It is really bad that elected officials at various levels have abandoned their responsibilities to the people. The ADC administration under my watch will strengthen good governance at all levels,” he said.
