“His achievements in the area of agriculture, educa­tion, health, transportation, road rehabilitation, energy and the economy are laud­able and should continue so that he can realise his dream for the country”

Governor Mimiko further said, “since it was the will of God to make the president assume office in the first place, the same God who has also ensured he wins the party’s candidature without any rancour will also ensure that he gets elected as the next president of our dear nation next year”.
