Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) aspirant for next year’s House of Representatives election in Akure North/South constituency of Ondo State, Mr. Balarabe Akinwumi, has unfolded his agenda.
In a statement in Akure, Akinwumi, a legal expert, said he would mount pressure on the federal government to pay urgent attention to abandoned federal roads in the state, if elected.
The contestant, who was Special Assistant on Oil and Gas under former Governor Segun Mimiko in Ondo State, said his track record is there to prove that he can deliver.
“I am informing you of my intention to run for the vacant seat of Akure South/North federal constituency which I know can only be possible with your support.
“Almost all federal establishments in our constituency are in a bad shape and crying for intervention.
“If I am elected to the green chamber of the National Assembly, my major concern will be how to fix federal roads, especially that of Akure/Ikere road which has turned a nightmare for the people, and I will strive to attract things that will improve socioeconomic status of our people.
“Give me your support and have solid and robust representation like never before,” Akinwumi urged.
He added that he would insist on having federal presence in Ondo State through FG’s industrial investment and the opening up of the rural areas through viable agric loans and tool support for rural farmers.
Akinwumi said his constituency is strategically located, providing link for communities in neighbouring states like Osun, Oyo, Delta and Edo.
