A former president, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo has extended his best wishes to the governor of Ondo State, Lucky Aiyedatiwa, ahead of the gubernatorial polls scheduled for Saturday, November 16.
Obasanjo conveyed his support on Monday during a visit to the government house in Akure, the Ondo State capital.
In his remarks, Obasanjo commended Aiyedatiwa for his commitment to connecting with the people and sharing his vision for the state despite the challenges of the campaign trail.
Obasanjo praised Aiyedatiwa’s efforts and determination, lauding his courage in presenting his plans and programmes to the public.
In his speech, the former president wished the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate the best in the electoral process.
“I understand the challenges of this period for you. I remember my campaign for the 1999 election. I covered the entire six states of the South West in one day.
“I think we started in Akure, Ondo State here, then to Ekiti and we got to Lagos around 8pm. This is a crucial part of the process and I wish you all the best,” the ex-president said.
Aiyedatiwa acknowledged the former president’s contributions to the development of Nigeria, adding that his achievements remained indelible.
He said despite his high profile and military background, Obasanjo remained a very humble and humane leader.
