Oginni added that both the APC, and the PDP, have been rejected by the electorates having been tested and found guilty of the mismanagement of the resources Ogun State.

“I am using this opportunity to thank the Abeokuta South local government party chairman; other executives; the ward chairmen and all the ward executive members.”

“I also urge all the executives to work hard for Ajadi’s victory because it is through his victory that members and other electorates can realise the social inclusiveness which the party has promised,” he said.
