Highly revered Owu monarch, the Olowu of Owu, Oba Dr. Adegboyega Dosunmu has described the governorship candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) as Ogun State’s next governor.
Oba Dosunmu said this during the governorship candidate’s visit to his Palace to rally support ahead of the 2019 polls.
Describing Isiaka as a “general of the national interest” (GNI), the monarch lauded him for his competence and capacity, insisting the two-time governorship candidate would win the 2019 election.
“I am forseeing that GNI is going to represent Ogun State well at all levels, if he becomes Governor. I respectively call him our Governor. By God’s grace he will be the next Governor of Ogun State. I will continue to pray for you, and take note whoever receives prayers in Owu Palace is always successful.”
“Wherever you go, you will be loved dearly, and people will work towards your political success. Gboyega Isiaka is a known successful man, who is also competent, and his consistence to rule is an indication of his love for the state. We should consider his consistent struggle”, the monarch stated.
While leading the conduct of prayers for Isiaka, Oba Dosunmu appealed for the recognition of the traditional institution in Isiaka’s administration,saying traditional rulers play pivotal roles in moral values orientation.
Responding, Isiaka appreciated the support of the Olowu alongside other monarchs in Owu kingdom, even as he promised to take the State to greater heights if elected in 2019.
“All those that have governed us since 1976, have all tried their best. They have performed to the best of their abilities and capacity. Our campaign is themed “Greater Ogun” because we believe there are enough resources to make this State great again.”
“We are not paying any lip service to the plans and programmes on our manifesto. We promise to keep our word and create a life of abundance for our good people who in all sense of honesty deserve much better from the government. Ours would not be an anti-people government.” he submitted.
Speaking earlier, the Director General of the Gboyega Nasir Isiaka Campaign Organization (GNICO), Engr. Tony Ojesina vowed that the party would ensure that Owu kingdom and by extension Egbaland will continue to witness significant growth and development under Isiaka’s administration.
