The Technical Advisor to the Ekiti State Governor on Youth Inclusion, Hon Ayo Ojo, has commended Governor Biodun Oyebanji for the remarkable development witnessed in Ikole Local Government.
He made the commendation on Monday in Ikole Ekiti during the flagoff of the statewide campaign for the BAO/MCA re-election bid.
Hon Ayo Ojo stated that the Governor has shown uncommon commitment to the welfare of Ekiti youths, pointing to visible projects and youth-focused programmes that have directly impacted lives across the state. He said the Governor’s performance in Ikole alone is enough proof that Oyebanji is a man of his word.
He noted that from infrastructure to security, and from agriculture to appointments, the Oyebanji administration has not shortchanged the people of Ikole or the young population of Ekiti State. According to him, this is why youths across the state are solidly behind the Governor’s re-election bid.
Hon Ayo Ojo further gave a firm assurance that Ikole Local Government and the entire youth constituency will return Governor Oyebanji with their votes in the coming governorship election. He said the youths have seen the difference and will not waste the opportunity to keep a performing governor in office.
He thereafter called on all young people in Ekiti to come out on election day with their PVCs and vote massively for Governor Oyebanji, saying the second term will bring even more opportunities for youth inclusion,empowerment and international partnerships which will provide internship opportunities and work placements for Ekiti Youth within and outside the country.
The commendation came on the heels of the Governor’s campaign tour to Ikole and Oye local governments, where thousands of residents and opposition members defected to the APC in demonstration of their support for the Governor’s second term.
