I congratulate the Chairman, and I pray you sustain it.”
In his speech, Mr Oyebanji promised to be magnanimous in victory, adding that the election was a referendum on the party, “and a clear, positive signal to the election in Osun, and the national one next year. APC is still the party of choice.”Also speaking, Governor Abubakar Badaru, who served as the Chairman of the Campaign Council for Ekiti, said the election has proven that APC is endeared to Nigerians.
