...As Osun plank sellers, master bakers endorse his candidature
The governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress, (APC) in the forthcoming election in Osun State, Asiwaju Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji (AMBO), on Wednesday pledged to formulate and implement insurance policy for the safety and protection of all the markets in the state when elected governor.
Oyebamiji said the initiative would help to strengthen and guarantee security and as well help to bring succour against natural disasters.
This is just as the plank sellers and master bakers in the state enthusiastically endorsed his candidature.

Joseph Olabode and State Chairman, Association of Master Bakers and Caterer of Nigeria, Osun State Chapter, Alhaji Abdul-Ganiyu Onaopepo, said Oyebamiji's endorsement was borne out of verifiable track-records and unsurpassable socio-political antecedents in both public and private sectors.

Corroborating the gesture, Alhaji Onaopepo said: "As a person, I am a progressive. The whole world knows that I have never done any party except progressive party. Our people are progressives to the core. We are for you and we are ready to support you and your ambition to become next Osun governor.

In his separate remarks, Oyebamiji appreciated the leaders and members of the associations for their unflinching support and promised not to disappoint them when elected governor.
Oyebamiji disclosed that his administration would be fair, transparent and accountable to the citizens saying "every citizen will have a say in our prosperous government".
