Governor Akeredolu Begs For Forgiveness Ahead Of Ondo Governorship Election

Ondo state Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu, has begged for forgiveness of his sins, barely two days before the conduct of governorship primary of the All Progress Congress (APC).

The governor said he was ready to apologise to anybody he might have offended since he assumed office in 2017 in order to allow peace to reign in the state.

Akeredolu stated this when he met with the reconciliation committee of the party led by the Governor of Niger state, Abubakar Bello, in Akure, the state capital.

It was gathered that the committee, which was set up by the APC caretaker/extra convention planning committee, is in the state to meet with governorship aspirants, leaders and members of the party in the state.

“We must allow for peace. Let us get all of us, the aspirants, to sign that whoever wins, others will support him. “Anybody I have offended I will apologise to the person. We must allow peace,” Akeredolu said.

Akeredolu said that the APC is in the heart of the people of the state and that what the people desire is for the dividends of good governance to be visible.

The governor added that his administration has delivered in terms of the yearnings and aspirations of the people of the state.

KanyiDaily recalls that the APC screening committee has reportedly disqualified Governor Akeredolu from the party’s governorship primary election.

Governor Akeredolu was allegedly disqualified because of his involvement  in anti-party activities, leading to the low votes recorded by President Muhammadu Buhari in Ondo during the 2019 election.
