A chieftain of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ondo State, Chief Olusola Oke has expressed optimism that Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa will win the governorship election in the state.
Oke spoke with newsmen on Saturday shortly after he cast his vote at Unit 005, Ilowo, Ward 003 in Ilaje Local Government area of the state.
While expressing the hope that Aiyedatiwa would win the ongoing election, he contended that the opposition parties were too weak to win.
Oke, a former governorship aspirant of APC, said that the election was peaceful, especially with the conduct of the eligible voters performing their rights without any fear or intimidation.
“Election is peaceful everywhere. You can understand the joy of the people to come over and cast their votes despite the difficult terrain as a result of the waterside area.
“This time has been long waited for.
“The governorship candidate of the APC will win the election because it is very visible. Because the broom has swung very cleanly in our direction for victory.
“There is no credible opposition in the state and the governor came from an environment, where the people have long been yearning for good leadership.
“We will deliver the votes for him. I can assure you that the governor will win clean,” he said.
Oke, however, urged the people to also sustain the peace that was currently being experienced in the state, saying that the election had been going on smoothly. (NAN)
