Speaking on the controversy surrounding his WAEC certificate, the governor described those alleging that his certificate was forged as mischief makers, asking them to repent.

 

Daily Trust quoted Aiyedatiwa as saying, “I will just advise them to repent and try to go to the field and work. They are interested in the seat, and the seat is not vacant, that is why they are trying to do all that they are doing.

 

“You see, we are all indigenes of Ondo State and we are all qualified to run to be the governorship of Ondo State, but there is a sitting governor. I have the structures; the people and the competence.”

 

Meanwhile, the APC has fixed its primary election for April 20, 2024 when Aiyedatiwa will battle with 15 other aspirants for the ticket of the party for the November 16, 2024 election.
