Traditional rulers in Ijebuland, Ogun State, have unanimously endorsed the state governor, Dapo Abiodun, for a second term in office.

Leading other monarchs, the Awujale of Ijebuland, Oba Sikiru Kayode Adetona, endorsed Abiodun’s re-election on Monday while speaking at the commissioning of Igan Road at Ago-Iwoye in Ijebu North Local Government Area of Ogun State.

Adesina, who was represented at the event by the Dagburewa of Idowa, Oba Yunusa Adekoya, said: “You have worked assiduously these past three years and three months and you have justified why you deserve a second term in office.

“The message is clear. You have done very well by fulfilling the promises made to us in 2019. 2023 is sure and our people will vote overwhelmingly for you.”

Also endorsing the governor for another term, the Ebumawe of Ago-Iwoye, Oba AbdulRasak Adenugba, said though he is not a politician, the people of the ancient town “have come to tell me that it is Dapo Abiodun they want and not anyone else. You have restored confidence in government and for keeping the promises made to us during the electioneering campaign.”

Ebumawe further appreciated Abiodun for embarking on reconstruction work on the road linking the university town to other Ijebu and Remo communities.

On his part, the Orimolusi of Ijebu Igbo, Oba Lawrence Adebajo, reaffirmed the stance of other monarchs in Ijebuland, saying: “In the short period I have been an Oba, you have changed my perception about politicians as liars.

“Your words have been your bond. I can see development you’ve brought into our towns. We love you and our people have told me that year 2023 is yours without equivocation.”
