Soon we shall possess the gates of the enemy. Amen. God bless.

According to Yinka Oladoyinbo of Tribune:
The governorship candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in Ondo State, Dr. Olusegun Mimiko, has officially flagged off his campaign with a pledge to make free health, free education and gainful employment his priority if elected as the governor of the state.
The former Minister of Housing and Urban Development also said the industrialisation of the state would be part of the major thrust of his government.
He said this in Ore, Odigbo Local Government Area of the state while addressing a crowd of his supporters that had gathered for the flag-off.
He said he had developed a 12-point agenda capable of eradicating the poverty of the people, saying that the resources available to government were enough to banish poverty from the lives of the people.
According to him, the resources available to the present administration in the state were more than all the revenues the state had since its creation in 1976 to 2003.
“In July last year alone, the state got from the Federation account a total of N9 billion, yet what do we have to show for it?”
“It is clear to all and sundry that there have been no corresponding level of development to match our ever-increasing resources in the last three years, hence, the clamour for change,” he noted.
He, promised that the administration to be formed by the LP would be one with real development as its fulcrum.
