Tinubu Chides Reactionary Opposition Politicians

President Bola Tinubu has described members of opposition parties in the country as reactionary politicians.

Tinubu stated this, on Wednesday in Akure, at the grand finale of the campaign rally for Gov. Lucky Aiyedatiwa, the All Progressives Congress (APC) governprship candidate in Ondo state in Saturday’s election.

The President, who was represented by his Vice, Kashim Shettima, asked the supporters gathered at the venue of the rally if any of the former governors of the state; either dead or alive, would have voted for any ‘reactionary party’.

He said that a vote for APC would be a vote for progress and would ensure continuous development that had already started in the South-West region.

Tinubu used the occasion to announce the approval of establishment of a federal teaching hospital in the state.

“We bring you greetings from the President, if Ajasin were still alive, is he going to vote for the APC or reactionary party?

“If Akeredolu were to be alive, is he going to vote for the APC or the reactionary party?

“Would Mimiko vote for the APC or reactionary party?

“I urge you to come out enmass to vote for APC for the people of the South-West. Ondo State has two senior ministers, to whom much is given, much is expected,” he said.

The President appealed to the electorate to vote for the party in order for the good work to continue to continue in the state.

Speaking at the event, the Candidate of the APC, Gov. Lucky Aiyedatiwa, said he was loyal all through till the end to his former boss, the late Gov. Rotimi Akeredolu.

Aiyedatiwa assured the people of the state that he would do more for the progress of the state.

Also speaking, the Minister of Interior, Mr Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, said the party was fully ready for victory and would win the election in all the 18 local government areas of the state for Aiyedatiwa

The Chairman of APC Campaign Council for Ondo Election, Gov. Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos said nobody should fight with opposition, other than speaking with their vote for APC.

Sanwo-Olu said the party was sure of victory in the election and would still come back to appreciate the people of the state for standing with the party.

The National Chairman of the Party, Alhaji Abdulahi Ganduje, said they came to support Aiyedatiwa to victory.

Ganduje later presented the party’s flag to the governor and his running mate, Dr Olayide Adelami.(NAN)(www.nannews.ng
