He said “the decision to express governorship interest and to obtain the nomination form by Hon. Adebutu was a collective decision by all the party stakeholders, leaders, and followers in Ogun PDP; that is the reason you can see all the leaders from Ogun State here in Abuja to jointly obtain “our” Nomination form today”.
He added that the journey to liberate the people of Ogun State and deliver the state from the shackles of APC has formally started.
