Ahead of the governorship election in Ondo state, south west Nigeria, President Goodluck Jonathan has reaffirmed the commitment of his administration to upholding the mantra of one-man-one-vote.
According to the president, who was in the state to drum up support for the PDP governorship candidate, Mr. Olusola Oke, the federal government will not fold its hands and permit thuggery to thrive during the governorship election.
He appealed to Ondo citizens to prevail upon their relatives and friends to prevent thuggery in the polls in order to protect Nigeria’s image in the international community.
On his part, the PDP candidate Mr. Oke promised transparent and accountable governance, industrialization and elimination of poverty in the state if elected.
