Kabba-Bunu/Ijumu: ADC Can't Be Bought, We remain steadfast in our resolve to birth a new dawn for ADC

It has come to our notice that efforts are being made by those who failed to clinch the other party's ticket (PDP/APC) to hijack the ADC structure in Kabba-Bunu/Ijumu as a platform to serve their selfish gain.

We wish to reteirate that such effort is not only self-centered but also retrogressive, evil and will not see the light of the day.

In addition, such rumoured attempt to scuttle the candidacy of Dr Tokunbo Alaga Olorundami of the ADC, who has assiduously and financially worked hard to put in place the structure of the party in Kabba-Bunu/Ijumu will be counter productive and destructive for the party.

Hon. Tokunbo Alaga Olorundami saw ahead of the game, labored so hard to build  the party ADC from scratch.

To say that someone will bring money to outplay such person who has made enormous sacrifice is only a recipe for the party’s elimination which has always been the game plan of the incoming intruders, we will not allow them. 

Its appalling that some new entrants who will unfailingly return to their party are planing to push aside someone who has laboured to resurrect the party in the constituency and put it's structure in place.

However, our trust is in God Almighty and the uncommon integrity of ADC leaders under the able leadership of Elder Leke Abejide who has over the years work so hard to build an alternative narrative for Okun politics.

I believe in the leadership of Elder Leke Abejide and other stakeholders of the party, their integrity is their currency, they can not be bought over by those whose objective is only to use the party to achieve their selfish agenda and then abandon the party.

It's a big NO to them

I have revived millions of calls about danger to our mandate, my assurance is that nobody can buy the leadership of ADC. I want to assure all my supporters that our mandate is safe, secured and intact in ADC.

Pls be fully assured that we came to ADC to merge forces with Elder Leke Abejide and we all know him as a leader that cannot be bought.

The only ticket to win this Kabba-Bunu/Ijumu House of Reps is Dr. Tokunbo Olorundami on the ballot, any other candidate will amount to self destruction for ADC.

2023: YOUR REACH IS UNCOMMON, GOV AKEREDOLU TELLS TINUBU

 

•Insists Southwest Must Produce Next President 

•I Will Unite Nigeria - Tinubu 

Ondo State Governor, Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, SAN, on Thursday received the former Lagos State Governor and National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who visited the state as part of his engagement with delegates ahead of the party presidential primary election. 

Governor Akeredolu received the presidential hopeful at the Akure Airport amidst pomp and pageantry. 

Supporters of Asiwaju Tinubu also thronged the airport to welcome him into the state. 

Welcoming Asiwaju Tinubu, Governor Akeredolu described the funfair that greeted the former Lagos state governor’s visit as a statement on his investment and hard work over the years. 

The Governor said the reach of the APC national leader is not easy to come by, describing it as uncommon. 

Governor Akeredolu spoke at the Cocoa Conference Hall of the Governor’s Office, Alagbaka, Akure. 

He said: ”Your visit is different. We must be able to accept the fact that Asiwaju has done a lot. No doubt, we have noticed that Asiwaju has crisscrossed the length and breath of this country. 

“And let us all be frank to ourselves. His reach is not something you can get easily, his reach as one of the founding fathers of our party. Many aspirants have been here, but your reach has also made it possible to have one of the special assistants to the President here. That will speak volume,” Governor Akeredolu said. 

The Governor added that the party and the delegates must think about an aspirant with years of investment, competence, capacity and reach while choosing the candidate to fly the flag of the party. 

“We have said it on the people’s behalf. The presidency must come to this Southwest. The governors in the Southwest have spoken. By the grace of God, some of us believe that the train of this country must have a smooth ride. 

“Think about Nigeria. Think about the investment over the years. Think about competence. You must look at the background of everybody, the reach and capacity. You have our good wishes as you proceed. Only God enthrones,” he submitted. 

Asiwaju Tinubu saluted Governor Akeredolu for recreating the future and setting the Sunshine state on the path of economic prosperity. 

“I am here to say thank you always. Thank you for inspiring one of our best. I watched a programme of the Sunshine state and I saw a very brighter future. The governor has been recreating the future . 

“I saw you planting Cocoa and distributing seeds. That’s the road map to the future prosperity. Just three day ago, I saw him again putting down oil-palm plantation seed. Talking about the future, thank is what we need. If we look at the missing part of the past, we will stay depressed. But if we look ahead, we can recreate the future,” Tinubu said. 

Tinubu, who lamented the division in the country, assured that he will unite the country if voted into power. 

“We created APC. I am one of the founding fathers of APC. I am very proud of it. What has been missing in this country is the spirit of unity. Problems, sorrow and anguish are created by human beings. Divisions are created by those who benefit from divide and conquer. The truth is we are Nigerians. And we hold that green passport proudly. Yes, it is difficult right now. The democracy we choose, it is twist and turn. 

“Ondo state has bitumen. You need a federal government that will put research in place and make it work. A sea port is a very capital-intensive matter. Unfortunately, the country has no long-term money except short-term funds. We have to find investors and partners and build a sea port for Ondo state. 

“When I got to Lagos, it was a jungle city. Dead bodies on the street. But I started with a good team. I refer to them as unbreakable team. Yes, there is a limitation on calendarised term. There is no amount of steel and metal you build that will be as great as a legacy than the people you developed. That’s my philosophy. 

“We must recognize the need for our country faster. And make it a priority. Ondo, you are working. Aketi is working. What he needs is me. A very solid federal partnership that will forge the economy of this country and state ahead of us. We can reproduce glass. We have so much on the ground that we can use for revenue generation. And we will be rich for it. 

“We will set the path of prosperity for our children. I have the brain. I am a better thinker. I am a better doer. That’s why I want to beg you delegates to recognize me. To distinguish me. I will rebuild Nigeria. I will unite Nigeria. Develop Nigeria. Use our diversity for prosperity other than division. There is merit in our collaboration. I have begged Aketi to join me in our efforts to revive the first national anthem. I can promise you that you will see prosperity,” he said.

A coalition of church founders and ministers under the auspices of the Integrity Ministers International Ministry incorporated (IMIM), yesterday at a prayer crusade formally unveiled Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as God’s choice for the 2023 presidential elections.

Addressing a mammoth crowd at the headquarters of IMIM at the Ikorodu axis of Lagos, Bishop Kayode Williams, Founder and Vice President of IMIM, revealed that the divine, prophetic message from God indicates that Tinubu, the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) is the right person to lead the country come 2023.

According to him, God’s mandate to IMIM is to pray for the wellbeing of the country including its leadership. “It is true we’re all suffering now. But God has revealed to us that His anointed choice for the 2023 is Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. He will turn around the fortunes of the country for good, so saith the Lord,” Williams stressed.

Bishop Williams said the successful emergence of Tinubu in the forthcoming presidential elections was certain according to God’s decree, even as he urged Nigerians “to wait on Lord for God’s promise never fails.” Speaking earlier, President of the IMIM, Hon. Justie Oluawaseun Shogbola, a retired Justice of the National Industrial Court, in her opening remarks said, “The important prayer Nigeria by the IMIM is to fulfill God’s mandate to pray for the nation, Nigeria and unveil the prophetic, divine message. Thus sait the Lord! God has chosen and anointed a president for Nigeria in the 2023 elections.

Rev. Segun Akanbi, executive member of IMIM, while praying for the leadership of the country, said, “Tinubu is the sun that will shine brightest amongst the clouds. We pray for God’s guidance and protection for Tinubu.” The highpoint of the occasion was the official unveiling of Tinubu’s poster by the IMIM to the public. Other clergies at the event were Rt. Rev.
