Ladi Adebutu, a PDP candidate for governor in Ogun State, claimed that the state deserved a leader in the mold of the late wise men Obafemi Awolowo and Chief Moshood Abiola.
Adebutu urged the current leaders to follow in the footsteps of people like Awolowo, claiming that Ogun deserves better treatment from the current administration.
Adebutu launched his campaign at Iperu in the Ikenne Local Government, flanked by his running mate, Adekunle Akinlade.
Adebutu, who sought accountability from the ruling government, said: “We can no longer allow a state where Chief Awolowo, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, Chief MKO Abiola come from to be run by indicted fraudsters.”
Adebutu, who said Ogun State deserves better, promised that the PDP would offer Ogun indigenes the opportunity to be ruled by great men again like Awolowo.
He begged the Ogun people to join the PDP, saying, “we implore you, be our volunteers, canvass for us and perform your civic duty; free yourself of the toga where your taxes and money accrued to Ogun State disappeared without [a] trace.”
He said his administration, when elected, would add value to the socio-economic development of Ogun, urging party members to move out en masse and mobilize more voters for the party during elections.
