Olu of Ile-Ogbo, Oba Abeeb Adetoyese Agbaje, who read a communiqué after a meeting on behalf of other monarchs from Ayedire, Iwo, Ola-Oluwa and Ejigbo local councils in his palace, said only the re-election of Oyetola could benefit the district.
Oluwo of Iwoland, Oba Abdurasheed Akanbi and Olowu of Owu-Kuta, Oba Adekunle Makama, were absent.
“When Oyetola completes his eight years, we shall take our own turn. Therefore, we state that for this governorship election, we should all support Oyetola in our own interest, and in the interest of our dear state,” the communique stated.
Any other alternative will jeopardise our hope of ever producing a governor in our federal constituency.
“We, therefore, call on various segments of our communities, notably Christians, Muslims, traditionalists, artisans, motor vehicle and Okada transporters, students, applicants, civil and public servants, other men and women organisations, to key into the laudable and patriotic project,” the communiqué stated.
