Ondo State Governor, Lucky Aiyedatiwa, has pledged that the state will deliver massive votes for President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 presidential election.
Aiyedatiwa made the pledge on Friday while receiving the leadership of the Ondo State chapter of the City Boy Movement, a pro-Tinubu group, at the Governor’s Office in Akure.
The group, led by its state coordinators, Oluwafemi Ayejusunle and Tomide Akinribido, visited the governor to brief him on its activities, organisational structure and grassroots mobilisation efforts ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The group also sought the support and collaboration of the state government for its activities across Ondo State.
Aiyedatiwa commended the organisation for its support for the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its advocacy for Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.
The governor said Ondo State had fully backed Tinubu’s re-election bid, pointing to his declaration of “Ondo For Tinubu 2027.”
He argued that the achievements of his administration in infrastructure, employment, youth empowerment and other areas would strengthen support for Tinubu in the state.
“Our people are seeing and feeling the impact of good governance. From road projects to health, education, and empowerment, we are building a foundation that makes it easy to sell the Renewed Hope message in Ondo State,” Aiyedatiwa said.
The governor said the impact of his administration’s programmes would translate into votes for Tinubu in 2027.
“Every action we take that impacts the people positively is a vote for the president. Every one of the 6,000 jobs we have created is a vote for the president. Every road we build attracts votes for the president. Every political appointment we make has multiplier effects that translate to more votes for the president,” he said.
Aiyedatiwa added that the President’s vision was aligned with his administration’s programmes in Ondo and expressed confidence that residents would support Tinubu at the polls.
“The President’s vision aligns with what we are doing here, and our people will reward that with their votes in 2027,” he said.
He assured the City Boy Movement and other groups campaigning for Tinubu’s re-election of the state government’s support, promising that all pro-Tinubu organisations in Ondo would be carried along.
Earlier, Ayejusunle commended Aiyedatiwa for what he described as exemplary leadership and for aligning the state with the Tinubu administration.
He said the group would intensify its grassroots sensitisation and mobilisation efforts to build support for Tinubu and the APC ahead of the 2027 elections.
The meeting was attended by Deputy Governor Olayide Adelami, Secretary to the State Government Taiwo Fasoranti and Commissioner for Infrastructure, Lands and Housing Abiola Olawoye.
