As the 2020 Ondo governorship election draws nearer, Foremost Human Rights Lawyer and Activist, Femi Falana SAN has advised the people of Ondo State to give Rotimi Akeredolu another term in office.
Falana made the appeal in Akure during the 3rd Anniversary Lecture of the Akeredolu administration with the topic ‘The Nigerian Federalism Imbroglio: A Pragmatic Approach’, and Book Presentation.
He said Akeredolu has justified the mandate given to him by the people of Ondo State across all sectors as a fearless leader.
The fiery lawyer said the good deeds of Akeredolu since assumption of office should earn him another term for a consolidation.
“My people of Ondo State, I thank you for standing by my friend in the last three years. However, we are yet to get to that greater height which is why you must give him another chance,” Falana said
He said the people of Nigeria must appreciate that the issue of restructuring or true federalism was a national issue.
Falana further advocated the devolution of political powers to the federating units provided the people would be empowered
