Labeling the Ondo state
governorship candidate of the Action Congress of Nigeria Rotimi
Akeredolu (SAN) as a stooge of the party’ s national leader Bola Tinubu,
Gov. Olusegun Mimiko says people of the state will not vote for a
candidate who will “repatriate our funds to their taskmasters.” On a
campaign trail for the October 20 governorship election in the state, the
governor also blasted Tinubu over what he described as his poor
performance as governor for 8 years adding that his (Mimiko) performance
in three and a half years at the helm of affairs in Ondo state is better
than Tinubu’s eight years in Lagos. “They used 8 years to build just one
Millennium School; we in Ondo State, in just three and a half years, have
built world class mega schools all over the state.” the governor
stated. On the South West Economic Integration that A C N preaches, the governor
faults the idea describing it as economic integration of one man’s pocket.
“If they want to integrate the South West, is it going to be in one person’s
pockets? Ondo State will never be a part of such a phoney and
deceitful integration…but if it is the integration for the development of
our people; to give world class education for our people; to give world
class hospitals; integration to develop our public transportation; to
bring development like we are doing in Ondo State for the generality of
the people; oh yes, we are for it. “We are aware that the Yoruba across Ondo
State and in the South West know the type of integration that they want.
And it is definitely not the type of integration being preached by the
leadership of the ACN.” Mimiko stated.
Comparing Ondo state with other South West states under the control of the A C N, Mimiko said “Please, ask them what are they doing in Osun that we have not done better? In any of their States,
Ondo State is better managed than them. I salute Babtunde Fashola, whatever anybody may say, he has shown a flash of brilliance in governance. But the 8 years before Fashola, what did they do in Lagos?"
