The former deputy governor of Ondo State, Agboola Ajayi, has emerged as the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, for the November governorship election.
He polled 264 votes at the party primary, beating his closest rival, a former member of the House of Representatives, Kolade Akinjo, who got 157 votes.
“We have informed the Independent National Electoral Commission, (INEC) of the election, and the mode of the election is indirect, and it is option A4,” he said.
Vernimbe called for the support of party members for a peaceful primary election.
“As said by the DNPS, after two hours of deliberations, we agreed on the two points. We agreed that the all inclusive governance must commence immediately. Ondo is APC state. We won all the Senate seats, eight out of mine House of Representatives and 22 out of 26 state house of assembly members.
