ONDO 2024: To All Accredited APC Voters: Pls, Don’t Vote For Stomach Infrastructure — By Sola Olatunji

The die is cast, all eyes on the APC primary election that comes up this morning in Ondo State. It’s very clear that if the leadership of APC made a wrong choice, the consequences would be very disastrous in the November governorship election in the state.

This is also the time for accredited voters in this primary election to think about the overall benefits of the choice they are making. We have been entertained and have also listened to plans of some notable aspirants for the state. Ondo State people have really cashed out, and we are fully ready for the primary election, and any attempt to postpone the primary election will distrupt the entire process, which will be unpalatable.

This is the time for accredited voters in this primary election to take their destiny in their hands and separate stomach infrastructure from their political decisions this morning. It has been clearly established by political scientists that stomach infrastructure induced endorsement intended to weaponise poverty. Ondo State people should have no business with poverty.

N5,000 ,10,000, or dollars induced endorsement should not determine the direction of our votes today . Before we vote today, we should look at any of the major aspirants who are entitled to 8 years in office and pick the most outstanding in terms of grassroots chemistry, capacity, credibility, and passion for growth of Ondo State.

We should understand that the choice we made today will determine the future direction of APC in Ondo State, especially the November 2024 governorship election in Ondo State.

We are also saying that whoever is housing the returning officers who are supposed to be deployed across the 18 LGA for the purpose of this election should release them immediately. Those who can’t function without soiling their hands in corruption will get their fingers burnt this time around!

Thank you.
