The All Progressives Congress, APC, candidate for the August 15 governorship election in Osun State, Bola Oyebamiji, has assured the electorate that he will not betray their trust if elected.

Oyebamiji gave the assurance on Sunday during an engagement with members of the Nigerian Society of Professional Tailors in Osogbo.

He said the seven-point agenda, unveiled on Friday for the benefit of the masses, would be implemented to the letter.

Represented at the meeting by the Chairman of Civic Engagement of the APC Campaign Council, Olatunbosun Oyintiloye, Oyebamiji said that as a true believer in God, who fears and respects the Supreme Being, he will honour whatever promise made during campaign.

The APC candidate stated that his campaign agenda, code-named “PROSPERITY,” was painstakingly designed to meet the needs of the people and reposition the state for greater development.

He gave more explanation on some of the initiatives packed in his 7-points which focused on poverty alleviation, workers’ welfare, job creation, transparency, economic growth, security, education, and renewed investment in infrastructure.

“I want to assure you again that I will not betray your trust if you give me your votes. I am contesting to serve you with all my strength, and I will not disappoint you.

“My newly unveiled seven-point agenda was carefully crafted for implementation when I am elected, and it will drive the growth of the state. Trust me with your votes, and I will keep my promise,” he said.

Oyebamiji, who said the association has people with high level integrity in it, and promised support that can enhance their growth in the profession.

“You are men and women of high calibre. Your contributions to the growth of the state’s economy through your skills cannot be overlooked.

“A major part of the 7 pillars of our action plans, focuses on opportunities for economic growth and support programmes for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). This will be fully implemented to strengthen your businesses.

Trust me with your votes, and I will not betray your trust,” he said.

The APC candidate also urged the electorate to ignore what he described as a campaign of calumny against him, noting that the opposition was already in disarray following the unveiling of his agenda.

“Since I unveiled my action plans, members and leaders of the opposition have been feeling the heat. They are quite intimidated and confused. I put my trust in God Almighty and you. I am certain our action plans will reposition the state when I am elected. Ignore them, and let’s join hands together to bring the APC administration back in the state.

“The agenda was carefully crafted to meet the needs and aspirations of the people and will be faithfully implemented,” he said.

Responding, the Chairman of the association, Rasheed Balogun, commended Oyebamiji for his sincerity and passion to serve the people.

Balogun added that during the period, the APC candidate acknowledged and recognised their group through the office of the civic engagement.

He expressed confidence that Oyebamiji will fulfill his campaign promises.

He also pledged the support and votes of members of the association.
