He spoke during his tour of some local governments to meet party leaders and delegates before the primaries.
At the meeting, he emphasised on credibility of delegates while voting for candidate.
“Our party must get it right this time, and we equally must also vote a credible candidate that will not distance himself from the party when he gets to the corridor of power.
“My intention to run is based on the need for change in Ondo through a renew agenda that will steer above board.
“It is our intention to bring leadership to the party and also ensure a continuous thrust through our performance,” he said.
