Speaking at the APC national secretariat while receiving the forms, Adegoroye, told the party officials that it is high time Ondo state is brought to the league of progressive states by allowing the emergence of a right candidate at the primary through a fair and level playing ground to all the aspirants.

On his plans for the state if given opportunity, the governorship aspirant said: “My mission in this race is to ensure that the interest of the people of Ondo state are adequately catered for.
