“On what you came for, in the name of God we are begging him to show us the way to wrestle power from the PDP. I came to APC with a mind to be plained because I am not for materialistic things. The first thing I did was to ensure peace and I thank God that we have peace today. I have a Leader and my leader is Oyetola and once your request is discussed and ratified with Chief Akande you have my endorsement. If I have a singular power to endorsement your candidacy, I will do it now but you have tasked me now and I am ready to work on your request forthwith,” Oyedokun submitted.
