Gov. Rauf Aregbesola of Osun has said that the state government will continue to execute projects for the development of the state.
Aregbesola stated this while inaugurating a party supporters’ group, known as “Aregbesola De Winner”, at the Nigerian Union of Journalist press centre in Osogbo.
He urged the union to do the needy to help the government to sustain the current development efforts and actualise its mandate of moving the state forward.
According to Aregbesola, the impact of the state government’s good work is so much that the people cannot afford to lose the present administration.
The pioneer of the group in Osun, Mr Davies Olukayode, said the objective of the group was to ensure success of the All Progressive Congress in the Aug. 9 governorship election.
Olukayode expressed the need to mobilise the electorate at the grass-roots level for the purpose.
He also advised party faithful against selling their voters’ cards in exchange for peanuts, an action he said they might live to regret later.
He lamented the recent kidnap in Chibok, Borno, of more than 200 secondary school students, and urged Nigerians to continue to pray for God’s intervention to bring the girls safely back home.
Olukayode urged party faithful go out en masses to vote in the upcoming Aug. 9 governorship election.
The state coordinator of the group, Mrs Ayangbile Adesola, stressed the importance of grass-roots enlightenment campaign.
She appealed to the people avoid any action capable of stopping them from performing their civic rights.
