Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa has described his victory in the recent Ondo State governorship election as a mandate to do more for the people of the state.
Aiyedatiwa emerged victorious in the poll, which concluded on Sunday, defeating the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate, Ajayi Agboola, in a largely peaceful election.
Speaking to reporters shortly after his declaration as the winner, Aiyedatiwa vowed to deliver improved governance and create a brighter future for the people of Ondo State.
He emphasized that his extensive campaign tours across every part of the state had given him a deep understanding of the people’s needs and aspirations.
“The people should expect better service. And that’s what they’ve been looking forward to because I campaigned across the entire local government,” he said.
“The only candidate that went through the entire local government, not just the capital city of the local government, all communities, almost all the communities we visited them, we saw the roads and the way they look like, the environment they are living in, we heard their voices, we read their messages and we listened and responded to questions and their yearnings and aspiration.
“So they have that belief that their hope is in me. They believe that whatever we say is what we will do. We will not tell them what we cannot do when. We will do all that we have promised within the limited resources available to us.”
