“We will start zonal meetings on Wednesday: it will run from Thursday to Friday, when I might have finished meeting with the leaders of the state.
“We will discuss the Senate, House of Representatives, State House of Assembly, and governorship,” he said.
He, however, noted that the state would vote for the President at the polls.
“We will not discuss the president’s position, because that one is a no-go area. We have only one presidential candidate, who is President Bola Tinubu.
“He is the only president who has started a project here and will commission it. We are giving him our votes a hundred percent,” the governor added.
