In a bid to bring to an end the Ward-to-Ward campaign rally today at Ward 10, Oluokun/Waspha’s campaign train had its last move in the Oyo East local government area. It is significant to say that the campaign train witnessed unprecedented crowd across wards reason being that it is the local government of the Distinguished Sen. Monsurat Sunmonu – Mother of them all.
This isn’t to undermine other local government areas but it authenticates the popular saying that “Charity begins at home “. The campaign train began from Ward 02 and 04, Ward 01 and 08, Ward 06 and 07, Ward 03, Ward 05 and 09, and ended today in Ward 10.
The DG campaign council, Alhaji Rasheed Agba was overwhelmed by the show of love and support from residents and the electorates, on how they troop out in their numbers to welcome the train.
The ovation and aura were loud as the microphone was handed over to the PDP Party Chairman, Hon. Sakiru Ojo who engaged the residents of Araromi/Mabolaje residents and voters by telling them the reasons they should vote PDP. He also enjoined them to continue the door-to-door, house-to-house campaign.
Hon. Olorunpoto Rahaman, who’s representing Oyo East/West state Constituency at the state Assembly spoke eloquently to the people of Araromi where he resides for more than 10 years, urged them to vote for Oluokun/Waspha this coming Saturday for emerge as the Chairman, Oyo East Local Government and all other PDP candidates for the local government elections slated for this Saturday, 27th April 2024.
Hon. Poto, as he’s fondly called promised to erect solar power streetlights across Araromi from the main junction to the market area and give assurance that the project will commence as of tomorrow morning, 23rd April, 2024.
Leader Akinwande, a former House of Rep member in his response, commended Olorunpoto for the promise made to the residents of Araromi and described the gesture as the good governance of Governor Seyi Makinde being enjoyed across the state. He then urged the opposition to accept defeat as they’ll not win a single ward in Oyo Federal Constituency come Saturday because party members are ready to bombard the polling units and cast their votes for PDP.
In her goodwill message, Sen. Monsurat admonished the voters to come out en mass and vote for PDP candidates all through so that Hon. Oluokun can continue the great works in Oyo East.
Senator Sunmonu charged the party faithful and urged them to be peaceful saying there was no need to fight anyone. She emphasizes Governor Seyi Makinde’s achievements by quoting that it’s enough evidence to defeat and beat the opposition blue-black with their thumbprints on election day.
Speaking further, she advised party supporters not to see APC as a threat because the masses already known once they were allowed in the LGs, they would reintroduce ries that had been buried since GSM came on board.
She then joined other dignitaries to handover the PDP party flag to the Ward 10 councillorship candidate, Hon. Okunade Ademola Idowu, and the Vice and Chairmanship candidates, Hon. Wasiu Waspha and Hon. Oluokun Peter Olusola.
