I’ll strengthen Amotekun if elected — PDP candidate
Mr. Agboola Ajayi, a former deputy governor of Ondo State and the Peoples Democratic Party‘s candidate for the state’s governorship election on November 16, has pledged to improve security if elected.
Ajayi specifically promised to strengthen Amotekun, the state security network agency, in order to curb criminal activity in rural regions, including banditry and abduction.
The former deputy governor made the promise during his campaign tour to Iju and Ita-Ogbolu communities and some other towns in Akure North Local Government Area of the state on Tuesday.
Ajayi said he felt concerned about the backwardness of the state, saying having adequately prepared to govern the state, he was ready to change the narratives for the better, if elected, in the forthcoming poll.
He said, “We are going to strengthen the Amotekun, we will create forest guards that would work together with the Amotekun Corps in all the forests across the state. We will end up kidnapping; our farmers will go to farms with peace of mind. We will empower the farmers.
“I was one of those who created Amotekun, so we have ways to reshape it. We will end kidnapping in this state and our farmers will be empowered so that food would be sufficient across the state.
“If I get to power, we will form policies to develop the state, and within 10 months, we will change things for the better. We know how to run the government. We won’t be wasting time before we kick start our programmes. APC has destroyed the country; they have caused hunger, so let us vote for PDP. I will ensure free and affordable education. We will employ more teachers.
“ Governor Aiyedatiwa is collecting N1.2 billion security votes monthly, I don’t need that much money for security, in that money, I will take about N600 million from it to create employment. If there is employment for the youths, crimes would be reduced drastically.”
The Director-General of the PDP Campaign Organisation, Engnr. Clement Faboyede, while addressing the residents of communities, charged them to go and collect their Permanent Voters Cards to enable them to exercise their franchise in the November 16 election.
“Please go and get your PVCs to enable you to vote to chase the APC out of power. This is the only power you have to send them (APC) away. We know how hard the country has turned under the APC government and the only way to send them away is to go out on November 16 to vote for the PDP. Make sure you protect your votes. Don’t allow them to steal your votes.”
