Ogun State Governor, Ibikunle Amosun, on Tuesday evening, declared that his successor would be a woman.
Amosun’s disclosure apparently shocked members of his cabinet, who were with him at the World Press Conference venue, to herald the 3rd African Drum Festival, at MITROS Suites and Residences, Ibara GRA, Abeokuta, as what has been months of speculations was finally laid bare.
The Governor, who was responding to Newsmen’s questions on the sustainability of the Drum Festival after his tenure ends next year, assured that his choice of replacement would be “a woman, who will surpass him in all ramifications.”
“Let me say this. A woman is going to be next Governor of Ogun State. She is a whiz kid, that will key into what we have been doing in the last eight years.”
Amosun assured that with the performance of his administration, the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, would win the 2019 elections.
Before this development, it was alleged that the Governor had settled for the choice of a Canadian-based Mrs. Titi Odunfa Adeoye, as the party’s candidate in the Ogun State Governorship election, come 2019; as he was quoted as having said at a recent fora, that: “My candidate will not be a Politician, not even in APC”.
The disclosure on Tuesday, may have further put to rest all permutations and calculations, even in the ruling APC in the State.
