The
people of Ajagba Community in Irele Local Government, during a visit
to the Ondo State Governor, Dr. Olusegun Mimiko, at the weekend,
requested that he should declare his interest for a second term in
office now.
Political and community leaders of Ajagba, led by the Ahaba, Oba
Thomas Adesayo, had visited the governor to declare their support for
the return of Mimiko to the government house for a second term in office
and therefore sought his quick declaration.
Responding, Governor Mimiko expressed gratitude to the people for their interest.
“As regard the 2012 gubernatorial election in October, very soon, I
will give my response about this issue. Many people, communities and
bodies have come with the same request demanding for continuity, you
won’t wait for long to know my decision on the matter,” Mimiko told his
visitors.
Governor Mimiko, however, affirmed that Ajagba had a tradition of
unity once they decide to move and he knew what that unity meant.
“For a community to come out this way, just a few months to election, speaks volume,” the governor said.
Earlier, the Ajagba community in an address by its Secretary, Chief
Akinola Omoge, lauded Mimiko for the unprecedented development that
Ondo State had witnessed since the present administration came on
board.
“Your quality performance, honest leadership and true accountability,
as well as the total upliftment of every community in Ondo State is
outstanding,” he said.
