“I also advised the governor himself to caution his wife, but he didn’t listen. They like hypocrites, and I am not one of them.
“This time around, President Tinubu should allow the people of Ondo state to choose for themselves through transparent primary election before the main one.”
Giwa said that “Anybody who loves the president should advise him to steer clear of Ondo state. If not, the ruling party will forgo the state to a small political party.”
