Akeredolu Cautioned Against Name Droppers In Ondo

Governor Rotimi Akeredolu of Ondo State has been tasked to check the activities of political allies of his in the All Progressives Congress, APC who have allegedly been dropping his name to push their individual agenda in the Ondo North Senatorial District.
Charging him to stop the activities of the group, the Akoko-APC Youth Solidarity Movement (AYSM) in a statement issued through its coordinator, Olatunji Akinwale warned that those involved were doing it to favour a particular senatorial aspirant.
He said : “‎ The governor has stated severally that he does not have any anointed candidate and the party has agreed on the mode of primaries to be adopted in electing party’s candidate for the 2019 elections.
“Some leaders of the party in Akoko North East/North West Federal Constituency have been using the name of Governor Akeredolu to scheme out other aspirants from the constituency because they have their eye on a particular aspirant. While it is not out of place for people to support a particular aspirant, we believe the primaries should decide who flies the party’s flag and not hand picking which does not produce the best and popular candidate and may make the party vulnerable to defeat in the general elections.
“We urge the Governor to call these people to order before they soil his name in their desperate politics. What the party needs are young, vibrant and competent individuals who can win election and attract development to the state to consolidate the governor’s giant stride of making Ondo state a better place for all.”
