Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, has declared interest to contest for the Ogun East Senatorial seat in the Red Chamber.

He disclosed this on Tuesday night during a meeting of Ogun East Caucus of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Iperu Remo.

At the meeting were Senator Adegbenga Kaka, Senator Lekan Mustapha, the Senatorial chairman, Otunba Adeleke Adedotun and other notable leaders of the party.

Recall that Abiodun was endorsed by the leaders of the party in the Senatorial district during a meeting held recently in Ijebu-Ode, where he was adopted as the consensus candidate of the party.

The governor’s declaration is coming hours after the incumbent, Senator Gbenga Daniel, picked the nomination and expression of interest forms to seek reelection into the upper legislative house.

Abiodun, while addressing the meeting, promised to give the people of Ogun East quality representation at the Senate.

He said, “When you gave me the mandate of Ogun State, I have never disappointed you. I want to assure you that I will offer Ogun East the best representation ever in the history of the Red Chamber. I want to promise you that I will offer the district the best representation.

"I will not be a back bencher. I will not be a person that will get there to just look. I will offer good representation to the good people of Ogun East, so help me God.

INEC has failed in its responsibility, for allowing this anormaly to fester in our political space.

Party leaders or elders or stalwart or any name they prefer never ever represent the mind of the people, they are only endorsing so they can be paid.

Moreover it is wrong for a judge to read the verdict before the trial.

INEC should step in and sanitize this wave of fraudulent endorsement and let the peoples vote count. Let the vote count.

Oloriburuku. The worst ever in Ogun State as a Governor. What best is he promising now?

Ogun east should know that it will be the worst ever

Dapo Abiodun insisting on Senate ticket even with his poor performance as governor is just making my stomach to ache

Stay in Banana Island governing Ogun State, The people you punished in Yewa, Sango, Mowe, Ifo etc will never forgive you. Failure.

I wish every compassionate contestant the best.

Leaders must be compassionate and empathetic .

I'm deeply Depressed. A lot is going on with me.

Why wait until senate to give your best.

He's promising to give the best that he cannot give as governor.

I pity Nigerians, from Governor to Senator and from senator to governor.... what is wrong with us in this country

Make he go REST.capable hands dey Ogun East

He has nothing to offer, he failed as a governor just as his master, they are just there to milk us until we dry finish

No need sir, go back to where you came from.

You did nothing as governor

Why are you claiming INEC has fail?

What exactly do you want INEC to do on this issue

That's how it happens in all Presidential System of Government all over the world

Obama was elected to become a Senator in Illinois before he became the President of the USA


Biden was once a senator and eventually became the Vice President and President of the USA

Dapo sorry w will not allow you and we won't give you the ticket cus you are a disaster.

I will say it a million time Dapo, obasek and yeye Bello 3 of you are the most useless governor in Nigeria history no party should give 3 of you any ticket to anywhere. I'm a raw Tinubu supporter but you dapo and yeye bello should kindly f e k to hell

Just like a cycle, they call it success or progress as they move from local Government Chairman to Governor to Senator , and possibly end in Minister.....

And when you check what they have done so far for the people, it becomes the same thing they do when election is near, gather few big politicians, gift them dollars , and they stamp you to go for the Senate, for the masses.....they should shut up as our President once said....

What best is he promising now?

If the man who called him Eleyi is president despite being the worst Yoruba politician, why can't Dapo be an ordinary sInator after eight years of rigmarole in Ogun's State House

Nigeria: Pensioners Urge Tinubu to Pay Arrears

26 March 2003
This Day (Lagos)


Lagos — Pension teachers in Lagos State under the aegis of Teacher Pensioners of Nigeria (TEPAN) have urged Governor Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to review his stance on paying the harmonised three year old outstanding pension allowance or risk losing their votes.

In a statement signed by the Public Relations Officer (PRO) of TEPAN, Mr. Ayodabo 'Lade, accused Tinubu of failing to pay the arrears to teachers on their correct pension grade since the year 2000, contrary to what was obtainable in other five States of the South-west controlled by the Alliance for Democracy (AD).

INEC know what to do . Endorsement makes room for bribes.

INEC need to call to order party to conform to electoral Act.

Sadly electoral Act is just for show.

Parachoko:

He wants to become Senator Eleyi.

It is now Daniel vs Dapo, both from Remọ division of Ogun state. A dark horse may eventually emerge.

Nigerians in general do not relate their electoral decisions with the quality of governance promised and received. He will win....and he will do nothing....because he doesn't need to perform.

Say no to 'endorsements', 'consensus' and every anti democratic devices that have taken root and continue to fester in this country. If they do work Nigeria will be far better that it is presently.

Anyone vying for office MUST compete democratically for it.

Why will an immediate ex governor be seeking Senate. You have the whole 8 years to serve the people of Ogun but you didn't.

Only in Nigeria, from governor to senator. Shameless people

abbasajao:

I felt disappointed too, it shows he didn't perform well as a Governor.

Liar. What did he do in Ado Odo Ota in his 8 years?

You were governor, didn’t make Ogun state the best ever, but you are telling us you can make a section of Ogun state best ever as a legislator.

No be juju be that.

What are his achievements as a Governor?

We understand that once you taste power, you never want to go back.

That’s why Atiku, kwankwaso, Elrufai, Ameachi, Bab half salary, Obi and even Tinubu are wanting to get hold of power.
It has nothing to do with wanting to serve.
