Sowunmi Intensifies Campaign for Tinubu’s Re-election in Ogun East

Otunba Segun Sowunmi, the convener of The Alternative Movement, has ramped up his campaign to support President Bola Tinubu's re-election in Ogun East. The activist visited Ijebu Igbo, the heart of Ijebu North Local Government Area, to urge voters to mobilize and cast maximum votes for Tinubu in the upcoming general election. Sowunmi highlighted the numerous benefits Ogun East has reaped under Tinubu's leadership, asserting that the senatorial district should enjoy a high turnout of voters comparable to those in major northern states.

He emphasized Ogun State's size, boasting nearly three million registered voters, and emphasized the potential for a substantial voter turnout.

The political activist confidently expressed his belief that Tinubu would secure victory in Ogun State and called on voters to turn out in large numbers to ensure their support translates into actual votes. He also rallied behind Ogun State Governor Dapo Abiodun, citing the governor's proximity to the presidency and the business community as potential catalysts for attracting federal investments to the state.

Sowunmi cautioned against political games in the senatorial election, urging voters to prioritize the needs and interests of the district and the state.

Addressing speculations about Tinubu's health, Sowunmi dismissed claims that the president was medically unfit to seek re-election, pointing out the president's recent public appearances as evidence of his active status. He further defended the president's decision not to attend the UN General Assembly personally, arguing that Nigeria could still be adequately represented by the vice president or another authorized representative.

Sowunmi urged Nigerians to focus on the positive developments under the current administration rather than getting caught up in negative reports, emphasizing that political disagreements should not prevent citizens from recognizing benefits to the country.
