“Your business and cooperative are very important for the economic growth of our state, and I will not disappoint you.”
Oyebamiji, who urged the market men and women to vote for him during the August 15, 2026, election, said that he would also attract foreign investors to the state to boost economic growth of the state.
He said, “I will not deceive you. I will fulfil all my electioneering promises.
“Your show of love for me today will be rewarded, and you will not regret voting for me.”
