Senator Olufemi Lanlehin, governorship aspirant on the platform of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), has sued for calm and patience with the party’s leadership as it navigates the course of nominating its governorship candidate.
Lanlehin in a statement by his media assistant, ‘Damola Adeoye, said that the process of nomination of candidates is perhaps the most demanding, and once gotten right, victory at the general polls is all but assured, ‘owing to the love the people of Oyo State already have for the party’.
“Senator Lanlehin wishes to note, that though last few days have been hectic; full of intense politicking and consultations, as the race for who picks the sole ticket revs into first gear, the spirit of comradeship, friendship and conviviality on display by all the eminently qualified 13 aspirants is novel and worth emulating by other parties. This is so, because the need to salvage our dear state from the current neo-capitalist and vice-like grip of the ruling APC supersedes individual ambitions. Much more, the individual decisions by all aspirants to abide by the decisions of the collective in determining the party’s candidate rightly underscores this point,” he said.
Lanlehin also thanked the leadership and membership of the party, as well as the good people of Oyo State, for their continued love and support for the party.
