He advised the people to vote en masse on November 16 to support the APC and the governor, noting that the election would affirm the governor’s numerous achievements across all sectors of the state.

He says, ” For this crowd of people to follow you to the APC without any inducement or coercion shows only one thing: that you are a great leader and a Grassroots politician, and we are proud of you, Dr Akinsola Jimoh.”
