“People saw his antecedent to this position. They saw how be kept his cool. At a point he had to apologise for peace to reign.
“In the last 10 months, he has shown capacity. You saw his composure during the governorship debate.
“We saw one when they wanted to remove him, people stood up and defended him. Aiyedatiwa candidature has united the Ondo APC.”
The former state lawmaker described Governor Ayedatiwa as a child of destiny who is divingly prepared for governance.
“The way he got this position today makes people believe that he is a child of destiny and he is prepared for the position, they believe that he has the capacity to lead Ondo state in the next four years.
“I won’t be surprised if we win all the 18 local government areas because, I’ve been in this game since 1999 and this is the first time that in the week of the gubernatorial election in Ondo State and we don’t even notice the presence of the opposition in the state.
“For the first time, it seems that the election is just for the APC and we will win because we cannot see the opposition in terms of engagement with the people,” he said.
