The All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate for Oyo State Sen. Teslim Folarin has received donations of campaign materials from members of the party in the Diaspora.
Folarin received branded caps and banners among others.
The APC Chairman, South African Chapter, Mr Bola Babarinde, disclosed this in a statement on Wednesday in Lagos, saying the donation was in conjunction with the Chairman of the United States of America Chapter, Prof. Adesegun Labinjo.
Babarinde, who is also Deputy Director, Diaspora, Tinubu/Shettima and Sanwo-Olu/Hamzat Independent Campaign Group (ICG), said the donation was their modest contribution toward the victory of the party in the state.
He said the party would record a landslide victory in the forthcoming general election because it has massive support from Nigerians, adding that Folarin has track records of unprecedented accomplishments at the Senate to defeat the ruling People’s Democratic Party in the state.
Babarinde, also a Director, Teslim Folarin Governorship Campaign Committee, reiterated that the chapters were ready to work with the party, promising their unalloyed support.
“We have resolved to support Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and Senator Teslim Folarin’s ambition to be next President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and Governor of Oyo State respectively come 2023,” he said.
Labinjo, Chairman, APC United States of America, also member of Presidential Campaign Council, Diaspora Directorate, said the chapters were ready to mobilise massive votes for APC candidates in the 2023 general election.
Folarin thanked the donors for the gesture, saying the party would win in both the presidential and governorship elections.
The governorship candidate urged members of the APC Diaspora to work together to ensure victory for all the party’s candidates in the forthcoming general election.
