Abiodun reminded attendees that their selection process was thorough, reinforcing that no one was chosen by chance. He conveyed his determination to not let “accidental council chairmen” take office, underscoring the seriousness with which he approaches these local government elections.
He reiterated the significance of these elections for grassroots development and encouraged the candidates to embody his administration’s ‘ISEYA’ ethos, promoting its vision effectively in their communities.
