One of the aspirants of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), for the 2024 Ondo governorship poll, Otunba Bamidele Akingboye, has tasked the party to zone its ticket to Ondo South.
Akingboye stated this when he spoke with newsmen in Abuja, after the PDP National Working Committee met with stakeholders from Ondo State.
“ The issues with party leadership have been resolved, and we are ready to return home.
“I am from the southern senatorial district of Ondo State, precisely Okiti Pupa, the town that has consistently delivered PDP victories since ’99, and we will continue to do so in the next election.
“I fully support the zoning of the ticket to Ondo South senatorial district as the sure path for PDP’s success.
“ I have been contesting for the PDP’s ticket for 25 years, and now that it’s our turn, I am confident I will win,” he said.
Akingboye added: “I have the capacity, knowledge, and skills required to defeat the All Progressives Congress (APC).
“As an entrepreneur for 40 years, I understand that governance is about business and creating employment and wealth, which I’ve successfully done globally.”
Akingboye promised to give the people of the state the best, if given the mandate.
Another aspirant, Mr Olusola Ebiseni, expressed optimism that the stakeholders would reach an agreement on the zoning formula for the election.
