Former House of Representatives member, Oladipupo Adebutu has declared that he is the Joshua that will take the Ogun people to the promised land.
Adebutu gave the assurance while giving his speech at his official declaration as governorship aspirants under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), in Ogun State on Wednesday.
The event was attended by Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State and former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose.
He said the people of Ogun had suffered a lot under the All Progressives Congress.
He, however, declared that he would start his ward to ward campaign in the 236 wards in Ogun by next Tuesday.
Adebutu described Wike as a man with human kindness and that when other leaders of the party left, he stood firm and fought for the party.
The former governor of Ekiti, Peter Ayodele Fayose in his speech said he felt sad when the court indicted the late Senator Buruji Kashamu as the right candidate for the party to contest the governorship election in 2023.
He hinted that he is also interested in being the next president of Nigeria because, after the north, it is the turn of the South.
Fayose said he had to put it aside for Wike because he is a good man.
Speaking, Wike charged the people of Ogun State to join him to snatch power from the APC in 2023.
“I have the capacity to face APC because Nigeria needs a leader who is courageous, bold and fearless. PDP does not need just people but people who can win an election.
