As we journey on, I cannot claim to have optimally satisfied all your yearnings but can boast we have been striving in your best interest always hence the progressive positive turn around our constituency is witnessing today.
We have been responsive in our best capacity to your outcry and with great assurances from our heart can promise to do more.
Today is not to unravel new manifestoes but to reawaken the hope you have in us and to roll out our drums of appreciation to those who have stayed committed, devoted, dedicated and firm in the past one year.
Special thanks to the leadership of Ondo State under the Arakunrin Odunayo Akeredolu led administration whom through his concern for humanity considered Akure South Constituency 1 as one of the major beneficiaries of the infrastructural developments and capacity building in the State.
This is not to say we have done all but to revive the confidence reposed in us and to assure you that we have your interest at heart and will do all in our capacity to ensure Akure South Constituency 1 shines over and again.
Thank you good people of Akure.
