ADP Governorship Candidate, Sokunbi vows to prioritize Pensioners, Workers Welfare, liberate Ogun
Hon Olanrewaju Kazeem Sokunbi, Governorship candidate of the Action Democratic Party, on Tuesday, restated his commitment to free the state from the shackles of bad governance.
He pointed out that Ogun State has been under the stranglehold of the All Progressives Congress for so many years with no meaningful economic, social and political development.
All the state could boast of within this period is a huge debt profile, unpaid workers’ salaries and retirees’ pensions for so many years, poor basic infrastructural development, including roads, water, waste management and medical care.
But Sokunbi who gave a message of hope, proclaimed to the residents of Ogun State said that all these ills will become part of history when he takes over the mantle of leadership in the state as governor.
“Let me quickly set the agenda: ADP will rescue Nigeria from the grip of bad governance that has held it down for so many years!
On Saturday March 11, let’s come out and in Our large numbers with our message of freedom, hope, and renewal, and vote ADP. We will continue with the message until the day of our victory,”.
According to him, “Let us with our votes decide that enough is enough and collectively come together to defeat the evil cabal that had dragged Ogun into the path of darkness, misery, poverty, unemployment, and economic retrogression.
“Not paying full workers’ salaries has since become routine in Ogun. Some workers are owed their full salaries
“Pensions are not paid, same with gratuities. These are our parents who should be resting at home and looking after themselves, thrown into the circumstances that compelled them to throng the streets in protest of unpaid pensions and gratuities!”
“We will more Ogun from Civil Service State to a full highly industrial state and our economies to 24-hour economies, so that money that enters our cities will never go to sleep. We will enjoy a higher velocity of money that puts profits in many hands and helps expand businesses, thereby increasing our GDP.
“To make this possible, we will build solid infrastructure (including lighting up every part of the state) and create local security so people can go about their businesses without fear. A full-fledged ministry will be set up to handle the renewal of infrastructure amongst other needs.
