According to the association which comprises of both Imo and Abia youths resident in Ijebu-Ode, ‘the tenure of the former Governor did not only benefit the people of Yoruba extraction but other tribes who also lived in Ogun state’
‘Though, we are from other tribes, but we have been living peacefully with our Yoruba counter paths. Some of us were born in Ijebu Ode, and we also have our businesses here. The administration touched on lives positively and we are here to reciprocate that kind gesture with our support for the former Governor’s senatorial bid,’ the group emphasised.
Chief Chibuzor Anyawu however appealed to other residents in the nine local governments that make up Ogun East senatorial district.
