ONDO Poll: Students,Youths to dialogue with candidates on programmes
As students' of tertiary institutions across Ondo State have disclosed that they have concluded plan to meet and dialogue with all governorship candidates contesting in the October 10, 2020 gubernatorial election in the state to discuss on the plans they have for students and youths in general.
Addressing newsmen in Akure, the leader of National Association of Ondo State Students(NAOSS), Ayoade Kikiowo explained that the move became necessary because of the challenges being currently faced by students in all tertiary institutions in the state need serious and urgent attention.
According to Kikiowo, the programme tagged 'CONVERSATION ONDO' would allow selected students and youth leaders and representatives to interface with the candidates individually to reel out specific programmes they have for students and youths if voted in as governor of the state in the October 10 election.
Saying "As the Ondo State gubernatorial election draws near, a cross-delivery of electoral manifestos and demands have become pertinent for informed electoral choices. Youths and students, as a huge fraction of the populace, becomes a focal point.
"In view of this, the coalition of related organisations has teamed up to create "CONVERSATION ONDO", a youth-centric platform for political parties and candidates to deliver their manifestos.
"Conversation Ondo will host political candidates on popular media platforms to relay their intentions targeted at youths and students in the state.
"We believe that this will immensely benefit Gubernatorial candidates as well as the youths, whose political inclusion has to be deliberately encouraged."
The students, therefore, called on all youths to eschew violence before, during and after the election in the state in the interest of all.
"We also use this opportunity to sue for peace from all angles of the society before, during and after the election. Particularly, we enjoin Ondo youths and students to be of good conduct through the electoral process, saying they are leaders of tommorow."
