Governor Ibikunle Amosun of Ogun State says moves by some politicians to pit him against President Muhammadu Buhari would not succeed, adding that nobody can turn the president against him.

Amosun said this during his campaign seeking to win Ogun Central Senatorial poll at Kajola ward in Obafemi Owode local council.

He said,  “All that they are doing is to turn President Buhari against me. Nobody can turn him against me. It is impossible!”

Governor Amosun, however, urged the people of the state to vote for Buhari, saying the President had added value to the development of the country and the state.

He said, “Look at our railway, airport, power and many others, so we should all vote for him.”

The Ogun State governor who was once a member of the senate under the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is now seeking to return to the upper chamber of the National Assembly after the expiration of his tenure as governor..

Amosun during his campaign lamented that some people were trying to disrupt the peace in the state, urging the people to resist any attempt by “foreigners” to enslave them with their votes.

He added, “Where were they before this time, it is now that the state is fast developing that they want to disrupt its peace. Resist them, don’t allow anybody to enslave you.”

At Obafe ward, Amosun told the people not to allow any politicians to collect their Permanent Voter Cards.

He appealed to the people not to engage in violence, urging them to continue to conduct themselves in a peaceful manner.

The governor, however, vowed to fight any politician that wants to disrupt the peace of the state. We are not known for violence.
