“But today, Ogun PDP is one and the party is truly united. There is one electoral college and we are approaching the 2023 election as a united front”.
“With a free and fair contest, I believe I shall be the party’s nominee, I shall be the PDP candidate”.

When asked to rate the performance of the Dapo Abiodun – led APC administration in the state he simply said “I don’t want to rate the incumbent. I won’t say they have failed in doing roads, failed in education or health. Rather, I will tell you what PDP I’d be capable of doing.
He said, “our administration will create wealth, encourage people to go into agriculture, ensure there is adequate security of lives and property for all. I will restore hope in Ogun state”, he said.
