Lucky Aiyedatiwa has been tipped to defeat Agboola Ajayi of PDP in the upcoming governorship election
A Yoruba chieftain, Barrister Oladotun Hassan, has predicted the possible winner in the November governorship election in Ondo state.
In an exclusive interview with Legit.ng, the legal practitioner explained that Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa, the current governor of the state, has the upper hand in winning the election.
He maintained that the governor and his strongest opponent, Agboola Ajayi, will have to campaign on their achievements and time with the late Governor Rotimi Akeredolu.
Governor Aiyeatiwa is the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), while Agboola is the flagbearer of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the forthcoming election.
According to Hassan, both Aiyedatiwa and Agboola are former deputies of the late Governor Akeredolu, and they based their campaigns on this premise.
But to the Yoruba chieftain, Aiyedatiwa succeeded Akeredolu and has, in the shortest period of time, performed exceptionally since the demise of the late former governor.
He said,”What will count for Lucky Aiyedatiwa is not that he is just starting but because of Akeredolu’s landmark achievements in ondo state.
Arakurin Rotimi Akeredolu has had many landmark achievements, which have added a lot of value to the APC as a government.
“Regrettably, the man coming to fight the APC was a former deputy governor of the same Aketie.
What would he use to campaign? He would use Aketi’s achievements to campaign, and the same would be true for Aiyedatiwa.
“Both are the same. It is now up to the people to judge who is best for them.
“The person in the seat of power consolidated those landmark achievements.
Within the past few days of his administration, he had done more than overwhelming service to the people.”
