According to him, "the people of the state had expressed their willingness to give their mandate to the our party judging by the results we had in the last general elections.

The people of Ondo State want PDP back to manage the affairs of the state."
Speaking on the party's Ward Congress, the Abia State deputy governor declared the conduct of the exercise was smooth and violence-free.
He explained that PDP is working assiduously to ensure that out of the 17-man officio, six women must emerge. This he said was in line with the plan to give 35 percent of slots to women.
The outgoing state Chairman of the party, Engr. Clement Faboyede said: "Our party is very, very prepared for the election.
I am impressed with what I am seeing. Everybody agreed to nominate who to serve them. No molestation, no shooting. Everything went well.
"I stepped down in order to put a formidable exco in place, and I am not contesting for governorship now."
He disclosed that there are 17 governorship aspirants on the platform of the party, but moves are being made to reduce the number of aspirants to barest minimum to allow for smooth primary or emergence of a consensus candidate for the party.
Faboyede disclosed that a Screening and Advisory Committee has been set up with Senator Bode Olajumoke as the head to look into how to bring all the aspirants together so as to get the best candidate the party would present to the people of the state.
He said in order for the party to have strong and best candidate, the party would not zone the governorship slot.
A chieftain of the party and candidate for the House of Assembly in Odigbo Local Government Area of the state in the last general elections, Henry Akinriboya, stated that the party leadership and members are working round the clock to ensure the victory of the party in the coming governorship election.
He said party chieftains and members are united and would leverage on the desire of the people of the state to return PDP to power.
Akinriboya, therefore, called on the people of the state, particularly government workers, not to be intimidated by the body language of the people in power in the state, saying the state will bounce back to her lost glory of plenty and security challenges will be a thing of past.
