Ogun APC Reps candidate Akinlade hails Appeal Court ruling upholding his candidacy

The All Progressives Congress (APC) House of Representatives candidate for Yewa South/Ipokia Federal Constituency, Hon. Abiodun Akinlade, has described the Appeal Court ruling validating his candidacy as a victory for the party.

Akinlade, in a statement he personally issued on Saturday, expressed his appreciation to Ogun State Governor, Dapo Abiodun, for “his sincere love and support during the period”.

He, however, dedicated his victory at the Appeal Court to God, aspirants that contested the primaries with him, and the members of the ruling party.

Akinlade stated: “The first hurdle has been crossed. With unity of purpose and togetherness, our victory at the general election is certain by God’s grace.

“I appeal to all and sundry to let us forget whatever misgivings, and let us work together as a team and member of the same political family.

“If by an act of omission or commission, I have wronged anyone, kindly forgive, as perfection belongs to Almighty God alone.

“My return to the Green Chambers, as a ranking member of the parliament, by God’s grace, will guarantee more dividends of democracy, empowerment, developmental projects, and most importantly, as Baba Omokeke, more employment opportunities for our teeming youths.

“I implore us all to go out and campaign for all the Candidates of our great party, APC, in the forthcoming general election. We should join hands to defeat the opposition at the polls.

“As always, I remain humble, passionate, and committed to the progress and prosperity of my people in Ogun West. I will continue to make you proud.”
