A former member of the House of Representatives, Hon. Jelili Kayode Amusan, has lauded the landslide victory of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the just-concluded local government elections in Ogun State, saying that the outcome of the election further reaffirmed the acceptability of the party in the state.
In a statement issued by his media office on the outcome of the council election, Hon. Amusan also commended the efforts of the state governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, for leading the party to victory.
He pointed out that the victory did not come as a surprise, based on Governor Abiodun’s commitment to addressing the needs of Ogun residents, particularly through improved security, healthcare delivery, education, and road infrastructure in all local government areas.
The former federal lawmaker, who was also a former governorship aspirant, pointed out that Governor Abiodun’s efforts in recording a total victory for the party in all the local government areas of the state would further strengthen the APC’s connection with the grassroots, earning widespread trust and support across Ogun State.
According to him, “the healthcare delivery, education, improved security network, road infrastructure, and water supply, to mention just a few, being provided by the governor in all our local governments across the state are worthy of note. All these actually helped the party emerge as the winner in all local governments.”
While felicitating the new council chairmen, Hon. Amusan urged them to emulate Governor Abiodun’s good legacies by prioritising their campaign promises and delivering more dividends of democracy at the grassroots.
According to him, “Effective governance at the local level is crucial for the success of any political institution, and as the representatives of the party at the local level, they should not let the party down.”
“Local government is the nearest government to the people. The success of every political institution is determined by the local government. You are here to further escalate the good work the governor is doing at the state level at your local levels.”
The former lawmaker, who commended the people of the state for their unflinching support for the party, urged them to continue supporting the APC, assuring them that better days lie ahead under the party’s leadership.
