OKITIPUPA —  Members of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Ondo State have been enjoined to identify with the leadership of Chief Olusola Oke,  the party’s governorship candidate in last year’s election, in order to unify the party after the demise of the former Governor Chief Olusegun Agagu.

The appeal was made by Ayodele Lijoka, a PDP chieftain during Oke’s thanksgiving service at Okitipupa, Ondo State.
Lijoka commended Chief Oke for finding time to thank God in spite of the fact that he lost the governorship election to Governor Olusegun Mimiko of the Labour Party.

He said: “Chief Olusola Oke is a godly man that any state will not like to miss and it is high time the people of Ondo state threw their weight behind him as the person to continue from where Chief Agagu stopped.
According to him: “One of the attributes of Chief Olusola Oke is that he has never at anytime betrayed Chief Agagu and only a united team with Oke as head, can take the Government House, Akure from the Labour Party.”
