Buhari leads govs, party leaders to Ondo for Akeredolu Mega rally

By Dayo Johnson, Akure

PRESIDENT Muhammad Buhari will today lead top echelon of the All Progressive Congress, APC, including governors of the APC controlled states to a mega campaign rally for its Ondo state governorship candidate, Rotimi Akeredolu SAN  in Akure, Ondo state.

No fewer that 25 state governors of the party, Federal Executive Council, FEC members, national assembly members, ministers and other party chieftains are also expected at the rally slated for the Democracy Park, Akure. The Vice President Prof Yemi Osinbajo is also expected to grace the ceremony.

It’s  not clear if the former governor of Lagos state Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, Osun state governor Rauf Aregbesola and Lagos state governor Akinwunmi Ambode would be attending the rally.

This is because of the no love lost between the Tinubu camp and that of Akeredolu over his emergence as the candidate of the party.

Saturday Vanguard gathered that buses have been sent to all the 203 wards across the state to mobilize party  members to the rally.

The national chairman of the Party Chief John Oyegun will lead the National Executive Committee NEC members to the rally ahead of next week election.

Oyegun had led state governors, ministers and national assembly members to the flag off of the campaign of Akeredolu last week.

Today’s mega rally would be the last before the November 26 governorship election.

President Buhari and the leadership of the party are billed to arrive the state capital by 10am.

The state governor, Dr Olusegun Mimiko is expected to receive the president at the Akure Airport today.

The President’s advanced team had arrived the state capital on Thursday.
