11.Benson Amuwa.
12. Egnr Niyi Ogunwa Oboli
13.Otunba Bamidele Akingboye
14. Eyitayo Jegede (SAN)

See below brief assessment of these people one after the other.

1. Chief Sola Ebiseni

This man is a grass root politician from Ilaje LGA. He is competent and has the political experience to govern Ondo State. He is very popular among his people but his popularity is not spread across Ondo south senatorial district neither does he has large followership across the southern part of the State. Among those aspirants from Ondo South as at today, he is the most serious and most popular among them. But financially, he is not strong enough. He needs financial back up before he could extend his structure across the 18 local government of Ondo State. Chief Ebiseni is also an experienced politician that cannot be ignored. He needs just little cash to build on the existing structure and popularity of PDP in the southern part of this state to propagate his campaign across the 18 local government of the State. Being the only serious minded aspirant from ondo south, Chief Ebiseni has become a threat to other aspirants. But that will only happen if only the leadership of PDP in Ondo South could give him the massive support and speak in one voice as usual.

2. Senator Remi Okunriboye

This man is a senator of the federal republic of nigeria in the old dispensation of the political history of Ondo State. He is a grassroot politician from Owo LGA. He is also two times governorship aspirant in Ondo-State. He is well known by his people from his senatorial district but his popularity does not spread across the 18 LGAS of Ondo State. Inside the enlarge PDP in Ondo State, his influence is limited. He also needs resources to advance his ambition of becoming the candidate of PDP. The Akoko people may not support his ambition because of tribalism and political sentiment of Akoko agenda.

3.Gbenga Elegbeleye

He is a grassroot politician from Akoko in Ondo north senatorial district of Ondo State. He is very serious and committed PDP Aspirant who cannot be ignored. He is the most serious PDP Aspirants from Ondo north as at today. He has the influence politically and financially. He remain an opinion leader in Akoko. He needs little financial support to pursue his ambition. He has the structure, forces and supporters he can use to grow his ambition. He may likely become a threat to other aspirants as well. Only if, PDP in Ondo north could give him an undivided supports. Money might not also be a problem for him because of his exposure as well.

4. Eyitayo Jegede. (SAN)

This man is very rich. He has influence and friends across nigeria who could assist him realise his ambition. He is very new in PDP and indeed not a grass root politician. He was brought into the system by gov. Olusegun Mimiko from Adamawa state to join member of the Ondo- State cabinet. He is very reserved like Mimiko. He isn't a talkative. He is brilliant and knows the law of the land. He is very good in the legal field like chief Wole Olanipekun. No wonder he is very influential in nigeria and skillful; he came as a professional lawyer and later, he developed himself to a politician in the state. He is from Akure city, thesame central senatorial district with gov Mimiko. He is a close ally and a confidant to the governor. He has leveraged on the support of gov Mimiko to propagate his ambition and penetrated the leadership of the party across board in Ondo State. He is a smart man. Being the favoured one by the governor, he has enjoyed widespread supports from leadership of PDP in Ondo State. But some angry leaders in Ondo south and Ondo north have prepared to disappoint barr Jegede due to the governor's stance to retain the Alagbaka seat in Ondo central. Some of the leaders have plotted to frustrate the idea of producing another governor from Ondo central for the second time. But barr Jegede might scale through if he play his card very well. Most especially the way the governor is using his influence to clear the hurdles for him. The Akure people are also not united as some of their leaders are not happy with the young lawyer being a preferred choice of Mr Governor because they see him as a newcomer. Mr Jegede has no political power of his own. His popularity is spreading very fast like Ebola virus. This is because his popularity is being generated from that of the governor. Though he has the financial resources with supports from powerful Nigerians in other part of the country being a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) who had worked for some powerful politicians across Nigeria in the past.

5. Adedayo Omolafe

He is a politician whose popularity spread across his senatorial district but his followership is limited to Akure alone. He is also not financially buoyant. His chances are very slim because 90% supports have be given to barr Jegede who is from his area.

6. Other Aspirant

Other aspirants who were not appraised herein are either not serious, or working towards selfish desire of becoming deputy governor. Some of them even lack the quality and political charisma while some are only looking for cheap popularity.
