Nigeria, Sep 30, 2016 – The governorship candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ondo State, Mr. Rotimi Akeredolu (SAN) has felicitated with Nigerians, especially the people of Ondo State on the 56th Independence Day.

Akeredolu, former President of Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), has also noted that it is not a mere feat that Nigeria has succeeded in forging a common bond in her diversity. He said this in a statement his Aketi Media Office issued on Friday, urging the people of Nigeria not to be troubled by whatever problem Nigeria might be going through.

He explained that the challenges of today “are meant to prepare us for tomorrow’s rewards. So, we should not see our challenges as the end of our nationhood. Rather, we should see it as an opportunity to put the right what has been done wrong.”

He said Nigeria “has succeeded in finding strength in her diversity and as such, we should remain resolute and focus on the quest for positive change so that we can get to the desired destination. No matter the challenges today, we shall overcome together as a united family.

“To my people in Ondo State, I say a new dawn is here. There is a light at end of the tunnel. I urge you all to remain resolute and committed to the course of positive change that we have been yearning for and which we are about to bring to the state;” Akeredolu said.

Likewise, he congratulated the candidate of APC in Edo State, Mr. Godwin Obaseki for his victory at the just concluded gubernatorial election, saying Edo people have laid good example for Ondo State follow.

Obaseki, who was declared winner of the Wednesday governorship election in Edo State by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), defeated his closest rival, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) with 319,483 votes to 253,173 votes.

Akeredolu who expressed delight at the conduct of the gubernatorial election, said he is confident that a resounding victory awaits APC in Ondo State come November 26, 2016.
