The minister of Interior, Hon. Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo (BTO), has been commended for his significant role in Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa’s victory in the recently concluded Ondo State governorship election.
Hon. Tunji-Ojo’s influence was evident as Akoko North West local government area, his home constituency, delivered the highest votes for the All Progressives Congress (APC), with an unprecedented 25,010 votes, representing 81.2% of the total votes cast in the local government. This remarkable achievement significantly influenced Governor Aiyedatiwa’s success at the polls, cementing the APC’s stronghold in the state.
This accomplishment is familiar for Hon. Tunji-Ojo, who also delivered record-breaking votes during the 2023 presidential election, ensuring Akoko North West contributed significantly to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s election. His consistent ability to mobilise grassroots support and secure massive votes has been attributed to his strong connection with his constituents and unwavering commitment to the APC’s progressive agenda.
Members of the BTO Political Family praised the minister’s dedication to the party, noting his strategic leadership and influence at both state and national levels. They highlighted how his contributions have strengthened the APC’s presence and laid a foundation for continued success in Ondo State politics.
The group also congratulated Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa, describing his victory as a reflection of the people’s confidence in his leadership and vision for the state.
With Tunji-Ojo’s efforts and Governor Aiyedatiwa’s mandate, the APC said it remains poised to deliver transformative governance for the people of Ondo State.
