Ayeni made the call during a gathering of All Progressives Congress (APC) members from Wards One and Two in Ikole West LCDA, where he outlined the achievements of the Oyebanji-led government. He urged members to remain steadfast in their support to ensure the governor’s re-election for another term.
Addressing party faithful, Ayeni described the meeting as a platform to engage grassroots members, update them on the administration’s progress, and give back to the community.
