Governor Olusegun Mimiko of Ondo State yesterday applauded the re -election of his Bayelsa State counterpart, Seriaki Dickson for a second term in office.
This followed his declaration by the National Electoral Commission (INEC) as the winner of the recently concluded gubernatorial election in the state.
Dr Mimiko in his congratulatory message through his Commissioner for Information, Kayode Akinmade said it was not for fun that the election process had to extend to a supplementary level, adding that God eventually manifested Himself because “one with God is majority”
He said though there are no easy elections, but submitted however that, when man erected obstacles are involved, only God’s intervention could justify His chosen.
Dr Mimiko said that the Federal Government has a lot to do for the people’s confidence to be restored in the country’s electoral process.
He submitted that it has become very obvious that the nation has dropped backward from where it used to be as far as free and fair and violent free elections are concerned.
