Former Governor Ibikunle Amosun and Senator representing Ogun Central Senatorial District, on Monday, stormed Abeokuta with hundreds of his followers across Ogun State.
This gathering was coming barely two weeks after an Abeokuta High Court directed the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to expunge the names of his candidates in the African Democratic Congress (ADC) from its list of candidates contesting the 2023 general elections.
But, Amosun and his supporters appeared unperturbed by the court ruling as they gathered at the Ake Palace Square for an empowerment programme.
Speaking with journalists, Amosun insisted that regardless of anything that happens, he remains a force to reckon with in Ogun politics, despite leaving office almost four years ago.
Amosun boasted that the larger population of the people of the State are still solidly behind him, asking them to remain calm.
He reiterated that Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) remains his choice during the presidential poll, stating that his support for Tinubu is unwavering.
The former governor appealed to Nigerians to collect their Permanent Voters’ Cards (PVCs) and remain peaceful before, during and after the elections.
