THE Campaign Organisation of the candidate of the Zenith Labour Party in the October10 governorship election in Ondo State, Agboola Ajayi, has announced the suspension of its rally in Owo Local Government Area, earlier planned to hold today, October 5, 2020.

The party said the suspension became necessary, following intelligence reports, which it said revealed that Governor Rotimi Akeredolu had perfected plots to lay siege of attacks on supporters and members of the ZLP, who want to attend the rally.

“In fact, the Owo woman leader and many of our supporters had been physically attacked since yesterday and their properties destroyed,” a statement signed by the Director General, Agbo/Gboye Campaign Organisation, Kola Ademujimi, alleged.

The statement said, “Recall that Governor Rotimi Akeredolu , SAN, candidate of the All Progressives Congress, and his party have become so hostile since they’re aware of the imminent defeat staring at them at the October 10 governorship election.

“The Deputy Governor and governorship candidate of the Zenith Labour Party, (ZLP), Agboola Ajayi, has always said and wishes to reiterate that his aspiration to provide purposeful leadership for Ondo State doesn’t worth the blood of any citizen of the State.

“The Zenith Labour Party (ZLP), has conducted a clinical campaign across seventeen (17) local government areas in the state without any blemish. We therefore, urge our teeming supporters in Owo Local Government Area to continue with the house to house campaign and mobilisation.

“We regret any inconvenience this sudden change must have caused.”
