“This is just the beginning of the journey. I am only a representative of the party, we are all contesting the election because a win for Agbo is a win for the PDP and the already strangulated  people of Ondo state.

“I want to implore the delegates not to go to sleep yet because there are works to do”

Ajayi implored other aspirants “to join hands with me and other organs of the party being put in place to ensure a smooth and successful campaign that will, by the grace of God, berth a new PDP government in Ondo State.

” It’s our collective responsibilities  to ensure the hopes of the teeming Ondo people waiting for our party to come to their rescue are not dashed. Together we can do it, pls let us do it.”
