A senatorial aspirant on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the Ondo South Senatorial District, Mr Boye Oyewumi, has assured the stakeholders of the party in the Ese-Odo Local Government Area of the state of his commitment and drives to ensure that the senatorial district is given all the attention and contributions it deserves to attain economic prosperity, growth and development.
The former Vice-Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Ondo State Development and Investment Promotional Agency stated this on Thursday in Igbekebo, headquarters of the local government during a dialogue with the delegates and other stakeholders of the party.
According to Oyewumi, it is high time the people of the senatorial district collectively think and prepare for the future by putting in place factors that will facilitate viable development for the people which include electing a candidate with a proven track record and unquestionable antecedents.
According to him: “What the people of Ondo South Senatorial District need is a candidate who can compete with other senators when it comes to intellectual wits and brilliance at the Red Chamber, a senator who can lobby to ensure that his people are not marginalized.”
He added that his experience under the Akeredolu led administration in Ondo State has fully prepared him to serve and represent the people of the senatorial district.
“Under the Akeredolu led administration, I visited all the wards and local governments in our senatorial district and I have first-hand information of what the people need.
“I do not need anyone to tell me that the people need the construction of the Igbekebo to Igbokoda Bridge, nor the construction of the Araromi to Lagos State road, the Ondo Seaport and other important projects which will gainfully reposition our region for more growth and development,” he said.
Earlier, the Director-General of the Boye Oyewumi Campaign Organization, Dr Ibukun Omotehinse, enjoined the delegates to be a part of this history-making event by ensuring the emergence of Oyewumi during the primaries.
Also, Oyewumi met with the Executive Chairman of Ese Odo Local Government, Mr Folawe Sipansi Aluko and the Councillors in another separate meeting where he pledged his total commitment to the welfare of the people of the council area if granted the opportunity to be a senator.
