Akinjide assured a mammoth crowd that Jonathan had already shown his interest in the creation of the state but it would be possible only if he re-elected. Continuing the speech, she also urged the people to choose Folarin as the governor of the state.
“You should please go out and convince others to collect their voter cards. Tell them to vote for Jonathan and Folarin. It is by doing so that we can get Ibadan state. Vote PDP, vote Ibadan state.”
Alhaji Yekini Adeojo, former National Deputy Chairman of the party, agreed that Folarin was the best candidate for Oyo governorship.
He also reminded the crowd that Senator Rashidi Ladoja (Accord Party), Senator Abiola Ajimobi (All Progressives Congress) and Otunba Adebayo Alao-Akala (Labour Party) have already been governors. Moreover, in his opinion they are rather old.
“Two of them have cases in court with EFCC. Folarin has none and he remains untainted. He is young and neutral. Vote for him.”
