THE All Progressives Congress in the South-West geopolitical zone has urged citizens to vote for the ruling party’s candidates ahead of the March 11, 2023 state House of Assembly and governorship elections throughout the country.
While Osun, Ondo, and Ekiti would have only House of Assembly elections, only Lagos, Ogun, and Oyo States would have gubernatorial and House of Assembly elections,
The APC’s National Vice Chairman (South-West), Issac Kekemeke, made the request in a statement issued to newsmen today in Akure, the capital of Ondo State.
The APC leader, who thanked Nigerians from all zones for voting for President-elect Asiwaju Bola Tinubu to win the presidential seat in the presidential election, encouraged the people of the South-West to show same love to the party’s candidates in the March 11 governorship and assembly elections.
According to the statement, Kekemeke said, “The people of the region would fully benefit from the next administration of the President-elect, Bola Tinubu when they use their votes to install APC governors and state lawmakers in their respective states.”
He also expressed confidence in the “ability and willingness of the president-elect to change the narration and reduce current hardship in the country as a result of naira scarcity.”
He said, “We are calling on the Independent National Electoral Commission to create a level playing field for all candidates in the governorship and state House of Assembly elections, as it was done for candidates during the February 25 presidential election.”
Kekemeke expressed optimism that the APC would also come out victorious in Saturday’s polls and charged members of the party to “sustain the momentum and canvass for votes from all eligible voters in the country to guarantee the success of the party in Saturday’s governorship and House of Assembly elections.”
