Ojogo Wins Reps Seat In Ondo

Former commissioner for information and orientation in Ondo State, Hon Donald Ojogo of the APC, has won the Ilaje/Ese-Odo federal constituency seat in the House of Representatives.
Ojogo polled 26,291 votes to defeat Akinjo who had 22,489 in the result but official declaration was being awaited from INEC as of the time of filing this report yesterday.
According to a statement issued by Ojogo, “A while ago, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), pronounced me as duly elected and returned me as winner of the February 25, 2023 election into the House of Representatives.
“This is a win for all, a solid foundation for harmony and great leap beyond foisted artificial boundaries.
‘The road to this Fresh Path had been replete with political intrigues, laced with challenges and coloured in various paints of interests. All contestants had traversed the entire Federal Constituency in high hopes.

“We made trips not as tourists or adventurers but as apostles of the developmental gospel with promises to our people albeit on different platforms. This victory is therefore, a collective one for us all as we are one and indivisible in our collective pursuit for growth and development for our dear Federal Constituency.

“In this regard, I draw the curtain on my political campaigns as today marks a turning point. My responsibility from now shall be to engender oneness, unity and foster harmony irrespective of ethnic boundaries. My constituency remains Ilaje/Ese-Odo upon inauguration in June.
