He thereafter invited the 2020 gubernatorial candidate, Balogun Eyitayo Jegede SAN to officially present the gubernatorial candidate to the party.
Responding, the PDP gubernatorial candidate, Hon Agboola Alfred Ajayi thanked leaders and members of the party for the opportunity given to him to fly its flag, adding that he would never take it for granted.
