“On behalf of the state executives, leaders and members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ogun state, I congratulate our dear governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, CON, on your election as the Chairman of Southern Governors’ Forum.
“Your unanimous election by your colleagues is a demonstration of their trust, confidence and recognition in your leadership capacity and integrity.
“It is also a clear endorsement of what we already know of you, that you are an invaluable asset to the nation,” he said.
The chairman pledged the party’s continuous support, loyalty and solidarity to the governor, even in this higher call to serve, and wished him a successful tenure of office. (NAN)
