ABEOKUTA–The 2019 Gubernatorial aspirant of the Allied People’s Movement (APM), Hon. Abdulkabir Akinlade has declared his intention to run for the Ogun State governorship position under the All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2023.
Making his declaration on Tuesday, at the DLK center in Abeokuta, Akinlade also highlighted a six-points agenda as his Reset Ogun State mantra for the 2023 gubernatorial elections.
In his declaration tagged Audacity to Rest Ogun State for Greater Heights, Akinlade highlighted, Security, Agriculture, Strategic Internally Generated Revenue Modules, Healthcare, Social Justice and Urban renewal as the focus of his campaign, adding that if elected, he will deliver as promised.
“As key stakeholders in the Ogun State project, I will not bore you with what could have been rather I will crave your indulgence to outline what I will do differently if given the opportunity to serve you as the 6th Executive Governor of this great State come May 29th, 2023.
“My vision for our dear State is hinged on the domestication of all human and infrastructural development because I believe that only prosperous people can truly appreciate and preserve the investments across our communities.
“You will recall that during our 2019 campaign for this exalted office, we conceived, developed, and presented a developmental blueprint that was designed to complement the giant infrastructural strides of the Sen. Ibikunle Amosun CON FCA administration (2011-2019).
“Our manifesto also elaborated our strategic plans in the area of Agriculture-driven human capital development, Education, Healthcare, Security, Social justice, and Urban renewal. We also stated how we plan to fund those laudable initiatives without placing undue burden on our people.
“Come 2023, God willing, our administration shall from day one confront the cancerous issue of insecurity headlong to ensure that the safety of lives remain paramount and a priority, without abusing the rights and privileges of our people”, he added
Akinlade, fondly called Tripple A was joined at his declaration with notable party stalwarts, and members including governorship aspirant, Chief Biyi Otegbeye and Modele Sarafa-Yusuf.
