Makinde who leads the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) campaign in Ondo State said during the PDP Governorship Campaign Flag-Off in the state for its candidate, Eyitayo Jegede.
Speaking at the event he said “They are saying you should vote for them because they want Presidency to come to Yoruba land. This election is not about Presidency to Yoruba land, This election is about delivering Eyitayo Jegede and putting Ondo state among the states that will lead the charge to restructure Nigeria.”
The Oyo State governor said the forthcoming election is about the people choosing between continuous servitude and freedom.
“We want freedom for the entire South-West. It has started from Oyo state, it will continue in Ondo state on 10/10/2020. Will you rather stay with a candle when you have the sun? Ondo state is the sunshine state. They have been lighting candle for you, so it is time to let the sun shine again.
“So, you will come out, cast your votes and stay with your votes. Your votes will not only count, it will be counted and it will liberate Ondo state,” Governor Makinde said.
His Sokoto State counterpart, Hon. Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, who was also at the event, expressed confidence that PDP would win the election.
