Youths under the aegis of Concerned Ondo North Youth, CONY, on Monday converged on Akure, the state capital to demonstrate their support for President Muhammadu Buhari and the Senator representing Ondo North District, Prof Ajayi Boroffice.
They passed a vote of confidence in the two, who are seeking another term in office for what they described as their “excellent performances”.
The group, led by Olusuyi Ajayi and others praised both Buhari and Boroffice, noting that Buhari as President had lifted the country in all areas within the last three years in office, while Boroffice, with his visible achievements should be allowed to consolidate the ‘enviable works’.
They said that their resolve to support Boroffice for a third term was based on hisoutstanding performance and his unflinching support for President Buhari’s administration.
They took their decision after a political roadshow in Akure where some market women, civil servants, and students participated.
Ajayi promised to replicate the meeting in each of the six local government areas of Ondo North Senatorial District before the APC Senatorial primary election.
The group contended that Boroffice’s proactive representation had resulted in construction of Emergency Obstetrics Hospital, Skill Acquisition Centres, Bio fuel Ethanol Plant, provision of potable water in the six local governments, interest free-loan to women and youth and especially the assistance rendered by the lawmakwer in securing federal appointments for many graduates across the six local governments among others.
It also hailed the Buhari administration for its anti-graft crusade, stressing that the country would have collapsed if the President had lost the 2015 Presidential election.
They however urged the Minister of Works, Power and Housing, Babatunde Fashola, to urgently bail the people out of the deplorable Owo-Ikare, Akungba -Isua, and Ipele-Kabba roads which according to them had almost become impassable.
At the meeting, the motion for the endorsement of both President Buhari and Boroffice for fresh terms was moved by a youth leader,Olakoyenikan Williams and supported by Alhaja Modupe Akadiri.
