The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Ganduje, has disclosed that the target of the party is to have political control of the entire southwest states.
Ganduje made the declaration on Sunday, shortly after the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), declared the APC as the winner of the 2024 Ondo State governorship election.
The APC National Chairman said the party would do everything possible to ensure all states in the southwest are controlled by the ruling party.
Speaking to newsmen in Akure, Ganduje said: “Our next target is this geo-political zone, the southwest geo-political zone, and you know we are good in hitting our targets, that is Osun State and Oyo State. We assure you that we will do all what is possible to bring them into the fold so that we have political homogeneity in the southwest geo-political zone.”
He also declared the conduct of the Ondo governorship election as free and fair.
“There’s no doubt this is a moment of joy, seeing is believing, and this is democracy in action, but what is more important is that all the major stakeholders in conducting this election believe that the election is free, fair and credible, especially INEC which provided the logistics arrangement, the manpower arrangement,” he said.
