CONGRATULATORY MESSAGE TO HIS EXCELLENCY, HON. LUCKY ORIMISAN AIYEDATIWA, THE GOVERNOR OF ONDO STATE AND GOVERNOR – ELECT ON HIS VICTORY AT THE ONDO STATE GOVERNORSHIP ELECTION HELD ON SATURDAY, THE 16TH DAY OF NOVEMBER, 2024
Today, the 17th day of November, 2024, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Governor of Ondo State, His Excellency, Hon. Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa as the winner of the Ondo State Governorship election held on Saturday the 16th day of November, 2024.
Having reviewed the conduct of the election which was peaceful, despite the imperfections and pockets of challenges characteristic of any electoral process anywhere in the world, one cannot be left in doubt, as an objective participant in the process, that the election was conducted in substantial compliance with the provisions of the Electoral Act, 2022.
Furthermore, and considering the towering imperative to prioritise the interest of the people of Ondo State over personal individual interest or ambition, I have in consultation with my supporters and party leaders and faithfuls, resolved to felicitate with the winner of the election, Hon. Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa, to wish him well and share in the joy of his victory.
While we continue, as a candidate and as a party, to play our role as a viable opposition by holding the State Government under the leadership of Gov. Aiyedatiwa accountable for policies and actions taken in government, we wish him resounding success in office as he continues to govern the State till February 2025 when he shall take the oath of office to preside over the affairs of the State for another four years.
Signed
Prince (Barr.) Myson Aderemi Nejo
Governorship Candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC)
