The Forum of Former House of Assembly Members in Ondo State has pledged to mobilise at least one million votes for President Bola Tinubu in the January 2027 presidential election.
The former lawmakers made the commitment after the All Progressives Congress presidential campaign rally held in Akure, Ondo State, describing the turnout as unprecedented in the state's political history.
In a statement issued on Thursday and jointly signed by the forum's Chairman, Olumide Araoyinbo, and Public Relations Officer, Tayo Abidakun, the group commended residents for their participation and expressed appreciation to Vice-President Kashim Shettima and other APC leaders who attended the rally.
The forum also praised the Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, for his efforts in mobilising party members across the state to welcome the visiting dignitaries.
It said the large participation of party members, supporters and residents demonstrated solidarity and confidence in Tinubu's leadership and his Renewed Hope Agenda.
The former lawmakers said they had resolved to contribute to the party's mobilisation efforts by working towards securing the targeted one million votes for the President.
They urged residents to sustain their support for Tinubu, citing his administration's policies and programmes, which they said reflected a commitment to national development, economic transformation and improved living standards.
The forum further reaffirmed its commitment to strengthening the APC and expanding grassroots mobilisation across Ondo State ahead of the 2027 general elections.
