Olumuyiwa Adu kick-started his campaign on Tuesday with an awareness rally across the major streets within Akure Metropolis.
The roadshow which attracted a huge crowd was led by Barrister Eyitayo Jegede SAN, the popular candidate of PDP in the last gubernatorial election.
The candidate and other leaders of the party urged the electorate to vote for PDP in the February 26 election in order to enjoy continuity expansion of good legacies initiated by the Late Hon. Omolafe Adedayo (Expensive).
Eyitayo described the candidate of the party as a God sent, a divine emissary who will restore the lost hope and contribute his wealth of exposure and experience to the development of Akure North/Akure South Federal Constituency.
At the popular Isinkan market, Akure, the traders lamented the high prices of foodstuffs and other essential commodities under the present APC’s government.
Besides, they decried the unprecedented spate of insecurity and abject poverty.
