The Ogun State Governor, Dapo Abiodun, on Tuesday, said the state would support Vice President Yemi Osinbajo’s presidential ambition to enable him to continue with some of the laudable projects of the regime of the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.).

Abiodun disclosed this when he and other members of the State Executive Council accompanied Osinbajo to the palaces of some prominent traditional rulers in the state in continuation of the Vice President’s campaign ahead of the presidential primary of the All Progressives Congress.

Abiodun said Osinbajo, in the last seven years, had contributed to the many successes recorded by the Federal Government, noting that “he is eminently qualified to lead the country.”

He said, “The Vice President’s presence here is homecoming. We are pleased with his decision to run for the office of the President. He is competent and committed to lead the country in a higher capacity.

“Your steadfastness, integrity and character are all well known. You are serving this country and the President meritoriously for the last seven years as the vice president. We have no doubt that you will do well as the President and we will support you.”

Speaking on the ambition of the Vice President, the Alake and Paramount Ruler of Egbaland, Oba Adedotun Gbadebo, attested to the competence of Osinbajo, saying, “the vice president has paid his dues and is eminently qualified to succeed as President.

“I want to pray that you will come back to this Palace as a President and Nigeria will gain tremendously under your watch.”


Osinbajo, on his part, expressed optimism that he would emerge victorious.

The Vice President boasted of winning the election when he paid a visit to the palace of Oba Gbadebo.

This is just as he said his administration would bring peace, unity and development to the country.

He had earlier visited the Akarigbo and paramount ruler of Remoland, Oba Adewale Ajayi, in his palace in Sagamu.

He sought the support and blessings of the traditional rulers, promising that he would serve with humility when elected President.

Osibanjo said he was not in the state to campaign, but to inform his people of his intention to run.

He said he had consulted widely, including with Buhari, before he joined the race.

He said “I want to say that Kabiyesi is a good man of fortune. Every time I have visited Kabiyesi, after it, I always become victorious. That is to say that it is a good one.

“Every time that I have visited him, at least in this political journey, it has always become victorious.

“I am always happy when I am coming to see Kabiyesi because I know that the outcome will be victory.”

Osinbajo said he had served the country with loyalty.

He added, “The Vice President’s position is an opportunity to serve and I have served with utmost loyalty. I put everything into my work. I am a candidate who will hit the ground running when I am elected.

“I have the requisite knowledge to do the job and building on what others have put in place. My Presidency will bring peace, unity and development to the country.”

Hmm, this is the way to go Abiodun, one of the decided governors for Osinbajo, more to come stay tuned! I promised you guys before now, that there will be many more surprises and jokers.

Nice one, but it is the turn of SE come 2023.... Not those supporting someone who couldn't effect any change in a state where he is defacto Gov for several years.

The delegates of Amosun in Ogun PDP would most likely follow Amosun or Buhari's directives as regards vote ... Dapo Abiodun doesn't have grassroot core followers, he is just like Osinbajo

Two paperweight politicians endorsing each other


.

Prof Osinbajo is the most qualified candidate among the rest. Being a celebral active VP over the last 7yrs he's better prepared and equipped to solve the Nigeria lingering challenges.

It's only a dunce that will understudy someone for 8yrs on a project that won't identifies the project Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, and threats.
Forget all those who has being out of touch with the workings of Govt for at least 4yrs ago or has being touted for performing well as a state governor. Nigeria challenges are peculiar & are beyond such experiences.

BRF & Amaechi who were the best Governor of their time even struggled in their first ministerial term to deliver. This should tell us that governing Nigeria is beyond governing Lagos or Rivers state.

Noted

After winning the primaries

Osibanjo will go to Tinubu's face and shout "who dey breeeeeeeettt "

Failure supporting Failure, as a vice president he couldn't do anything to prevent the daily killings and hardship on citizens, president my foot.

Good

Alagabangebe Dapo
It is better you let the world knows where you belong too

This one should work on his States road first before he opens his mouth to give nonsense support.

Never ever in your lifetime trust a politician. No truth in them.

Even if the whole Ogun state supports PYO, BAT will still have majority in primaries!

It's still BAT vs AT come 2023.

We are still looking for something to destabilize the equilibrium.

I don't want any RCCGFICATION in Nigeria.

It's wel, this one that adaripon supo has joined the race.
That guy na just waste of ogun indigenes vote.


Buy your mifi with LAN port,with 2400mah battery � that last 12hours at 21k(last price) around lagos at import cost.

Everyday i see PYO as a blatant betrayal. He can't become Nigeria President bet me. He was pushed to declared, and sabotage the rescue effort to save Nigeria. Clearly, those who think he can be manipulated are seriously behind him to divid Asiwaju vote in the south west and cause division. It's only the right thinking we understand what's going on. Osinbajo is a cabal wide cards. The more you look the less you see.

You hardly see home fan supporting away team except he's on bet

What do you expect the state governor of the vp to say?
Do you think dayo will pick Osinbajo over Tinubu? that is a big lie .
Just watch out as everything's unravel.
