During the visit, Hon. Bakare praised Chief Sanusi’s tireless efforts towards the growth and development of Ona Ara Local Government and Oyo State at large. He expressed gratitude for his unyielding support for the local government, noting that Sanusi has consistently championed initiatives that have positively impacted the community.

Speaking on behalf of the party, Hon. Taiwo Ibrahim, PDP Vice Chairman, emphasized that the visit was to formally recognize and appreciate Chief Sanusi’s contributions to both the local government and the state. Chief Waheed Ajao Adurodekun also highlighted Sanusi’s pivotal role in the success of the last local government elections, stating that his leadership before, during, and after the elections had made a lasting impact. Chief Adurodekun then urged Sanusi to give the party a date to formally register as a PDP member, signaling the party’s readiness to back his gubernatorial ambition.

He reiterated that the JDS Gubernatorial movement is a reflection of the people’s will. “The movement is not about me; it’s driven by the people who want me to serve.

The meeting was attended by PDP leaders, including women and youth leaders, as well as party chairmen, Vice Chairmen and secretaries from wards all the 11 wards in Ona Ara Local Government.
