The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Ganduje, declared on Sunday, that the party’s next target is to capture Osun and Oyo States in future elections, OBSERVERSTIMES report.
This statement comes on the heels of Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa’s victory in last Saturday’s governorship election in Ondo State.
Ganduje, who addressed journalists in Abuja, hailed Aiyedatiwa’s victory in the election as a “moment of joy” and a testament to the people’s love for the ruling party.
The APC chairman also thanked security agencies, the media, and civil society organizations for their contributions.
He stressed the importance of continuity in government, noting that the APC’s victory would ensure sustainability of projects and programmes.
Ganduje said: “There is no doubt this is a moment of joy. Seeing is believing and this is democracy in action. But what is more important is that all the major stakeholders believe that the election was free, fair and credible, especially INEC who provided the logistics arrangement and manpower.
“The police, DSS, Civil Defence, military, the media, international organisations, international observers; almost everybody believes that this election is free, fair and credible and what is important to the people of Ondo state is that since they elected APC, they elected our candidate, there would be continuity in government. There would be no abandonment of projects. There would be sustainability of programmes/projects.
