President Muhammadu Buhari has congratulated Ondo State governor Rotimi Akeredolu (SAN) on his re-election as Governor of Ondo State for another four-year term.
In a statement by President Buhari's spokesperson, Femi Adesina, the President lauded the “resounding victory” of the Governor Akeredolu at the election held on Saturday, October 10, 2020.
According to the statement, the president noted that the votes garnered “show that one good turn surely deserves another.”
President Buhari thanked the people of Ondo State for keeping faith with their Governor, and the All Progressives Congress (APC), pointing out that “the people know the person and party that truly served them, and have spoken in clear voice and unmistakable terms.”
President Buhari, in the statement, appreciated the Electorates in Ondo State for comporting themselves decently and in orderly manner, as well as exhibiting conduct that indicated that the country was making progress in its electoral behavior.
He also gave kudos to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for organizing credible, free and fair election, and to security agencies which ensured that orderliness was enthroned and maintained.
The President urged Gov Akeredolu to be humble and magnanimous in victory, and to serve the people of Ondo State even better than how he did in his first term, noting: “when you serve with heart and might, the people respond in like manner, and we can easily get to where we are headed as a country".
