OGUN FORMER COMMISSIONER, SINA KAWONISE EMERGES YES PARTY GOVERNORSHIP CANDIDATE
Penpushing reports that among those elected for Senate and House of Representatives are Alhaja Basirat Sonekan-Umaru, a Diasporan based in Maryland, USA, Mr Muyiwa Onabanjo, Pastor Segun Ogunnaike, among other prominent Ogun indigenes.
The YES Party gave three out of the 26 available House of Assembly seats to non-indigenes and one to a physically-challenged person, with four seats reserved for those special categories of Ogun residents to give them a sense of belonging and opportunity to participate in governance at the highest levels in the state.
Penpushing recalled that Social Democratic Party(SDP) conducted its Governorship primary last Thursday, and it was alleged that the primary was fraught with fraud and violence, leading to the exit of two out of the three aspirants that contested the election.
The Governorship Candidate, Sina Kawonise in his acceptance speech, promised to run an issues-driven campaign that’ll provide Ogun electorates the real alternative they have been yearning for.
Meanwhile, the Presidential Candidate of YES Party is Comrade Alistair Soyode, Chairman of Ben TV, London.
