The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ogun State on Sunday called on residents to reject governorship candidates with a questionable source of wealth in the March 18 election in the state.
The publicity secretary of the party, Tunde Oladunjoye, who said this in Abeokuta on Sunday, said such candidates were planning to buy votes with their ill-gotten wealth.
The party asked the electorate to come out en masse and vote for Governor Dapo Abiodun, saying the governor had done so well and deserved to be re-elected.
He said the people of Ogun State should make the next governorship and state house of assembly elections “the icing on the cake. Having chosen Asiwaju Bola Ahmed as president-elect, the only way to reap the fruits of our labour and benefits from the Bola Tinubu presidency is to elect Prince Dapo Abiodun and all our candidates in the Saturday elections.”
He, however, warned voters to “beware of people with ill-gotten wealth taunting and touting to buy people with money.
“The party must state clearly for the benefit of the doubt that our dear Ogun State is not for sale. No matter how they got their filthy wealth or how much they are offering, Ogun State is not for sale”, the statement said.
