He said his achievements in various sectors in the state in more than three years in office would speak for him, and ensure his reelection
Oyetola, who commended the people of the state for the huge support given to his administration since inception, urged them not to allow greedy politicians to destroy the giant strides the state had made.
The governor said that governance i

Oyetola said the massive defeat suffered by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and other opposition parties in Ekiti State election would be repeated in the state in a greater dimension.
According to him, “With the massive support from the electorate, my victory
on July 16 will be so clear that the opposition will be left with no other option than to congratulate me.

Oyetola said his administration would never be distracted by political machinations, rather, it would focus on quality service delivery to the people.
Oyetola, however, appealed to all registered voters, who are yet to collect their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) to do so and support the APC during the election.
