“I will just advise them to repent and try to go to the field and work,” Aiyedatiwa said.
He added, “They are interested in the seat, and the seat is not vacant, that is why they are trying to do all that they are doing.
“You see, we are all indigenes of Ondo State, and we are all qualified to run to be the governorship of Ondo State, but there is a sitting governor. I have the structures; the people, and the competence.”
Among the other aspirants screened by the national secretariat are Senator Jimoh Ibrahim, Olusola Oke, Prof. Francis Faduyile, Dr. Funmi Waheed-Adekojo, and APC National Vice Chairman (South West), Isaac Kekemeke.
