Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa has described his victory in the recent governorship election as a mandate to do more for the people of Ondo State.
Aiyedatiwa triumphed in the largely peaceful election, defeating the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate, Agboola Ajayi.
Speaking to reporters after his victory was announced on Sunday, the governor pledged a brighter future for the residents of the South-Western state.
Having toured every part of Ondo during his campaign, Aiyedatiwa emphasised that he is deeply aware of the needs and aspirations of the people and is committed to addressing them in his next term.
“The people should expect better service. And that’s what they’ve been looking forward to because I campaigned across the entire local government,” he said.
“The only candidate that went through the entire local government, not just the capital city of the local government, all communities. In almost all the communities we visited, we saw the roads and the way they look like, the environment they are living in, we heard their voices, we read their messages and we listened and responded to questions and their yearnings and aspirations.
“So, they have that belief that their hope is in me. They believe that whatever we say is what we will do. We will not tell them what we cannot do. We will do all that we have promised within the limited resources available to us.”
