Mr Rapheal Ademlegun, a former PDP Southern Senatorial aspirant and the Director –General of the Banji Okunomo Campaign Organisation, said the interest of the state electorate would be prioritised if Okunomo emerged the next governor.

“The overall interest of the citizens will be protected and secured if Okunomo becomes the party’s candidate and eventually elected as the governor of this state,” he said.

Okunomo, who was a former chairman, Ilaje LGA, in his response, said he was fully prepared for the governorship seat if he emerged the party’s flag bearer in the primaries.
