The Ondo State Governor, Lucky Aiyedatiwa on Friday declared his interest to contest in the All Progressive Congress (APC) primary election slated for April 2024.

“Definitely I will be running because I am already a sitting Governor, and let me say this that nobody wants to be governor for one year. Give me what the constitution allows me to do. At least let me have a chance of also running for one more term,” the governor said in a clip seen by SaharaReporters on Friday.
