The Kalesanwa Socio-Political Group has urged the Governor of Ondo State, Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa to see the last APC primary election as a collective victory for the people of Ondo State.
In a congratulatory message which was made available to the pressmen, tittle, ” Ondo Primary Election 2024, The Morning After”,the convener of the group, Moyosola Niran Oladunni, a former governorship aspirant on the platform of All Progressive Congress (APC) said, it was a long night that ended in a victorious dawn.
He said, ” It was a long night that ended in a victorious dawn. Yet, I have to write to give you updates from our last primaries election in which Kalesanwa Group played a dencetly active role to support your aspiration and also ensure your deserved victory.
Our participation was made possible by your outstanding virtues, capped by our people’s support and cooperation.
“We went into the contest with high hopes in a quest to deliver our very downtrodden people, victims of bad governance with the hope of deliverance in sight, from the few that have formed the tail wagging the dog of affairs of our beleaguered state.
“From 1999 to date, political activities in Ondo State, have been filled with much pains and little gains. We can only thank God we are still here, despite all odds.
“The resources are enormous, the man power is available and the business climate is right for great yields. All we need, as a people are embedded in you as a selfless leader, worthy of emulation.
“The results of the primaries election is a pointer to the above observation (the margin of 48,164 to 14,853 is 33,311, which is conspicuously glaring).
” It was in the view of these that we decided to channel part of our God given resources, natural and material to support your course, so that we can correct a system that has all the while presented itself a hell for the people.
“We started from a humble beginning with a lot of doubts and fear. However, your temperament, diligence, preserverance and patience restored confidence in us and that has brought all of us thus far.
“Although, our state is not where we all hope it should be, but we are confident that with modest men of integrity, like you in the saddle, there is hope of a shinning light at the end of the tunnel.
“It would be most laudable if his Excellency could take this time to embark on aggressive reconciliation drive that will bring all dissenting voices back into the fold and assuage every frail nerves.
“Furthermore, we implore your Excellency to take a thorough and selfless analysis of our society and co-opt all credible sons and daughters of our beloved state into your coming government.
“Let us sought the cooperation of men and women, people of all clans, of varying faith, religion, creed and class, friends, volunteers, the oppressed as irritants; which resulted in a perpetual conflict that has made life in Ondo State a hell for the oppressed and a furnace for the oppressors.
“The unfolding at the last primaries election should prepare us better for the major election and the envisaged victory that will lead to a fresh four years tenure.
“We still have a lingering pathetic situation where leaders in government are yet to wake up to their assigned responsibilities. All our industries are moribund and our youths are out there in the cold, jobless and helpless.
“Ondo State has been home of peace and development because we are hospitable, energetic and harmonious. The insensitivity of the entrenched circuit governance, has only berthed favouritism and injustice, even as successive government make out to the world that all is well with us, in the face of lingering agony that our people are passing through.
“In the words of Vaclav Havel, he said,” we should work for something because it is good, not just because it stands a chance to succeed”.
“While congratulating you for the well deserved victory, I will still reiterate that you should not relent in the resolve to bequeath a better future for our dear state.
“Let us continue to make efforts to peacefully mobilize our citizens towards the people’s sovereignty and the full independence, as state of one people, one history, one culture, one love, one heritage and one philosophy.
“Not only do we hold the dream of a better Ondo State in our heart, we are always ready to join hands with you and your government to make it a reality.
“We are humbled by your tireless dedication, it inspires us daily.
Yours truly
Moyosola Niran Oladunni.
Convener Kalesanwa Group”, the statement said.
