Describing the consensus arrangement as a sign of internal cohesion within the APC, Bankole praised stakeholders in Ogun East for prioritising collective interest over personal ambition.
He reaffirmed his support for Abiodun’s senatorial bid and pledged to mobilise backing across party structures ahead of the elections.
