Ekiti 2022 : I will not take my unopposed ticket for Granted Senator Bamidele Assures Constituents .....Promises to work for Party victory in guber Election

The Chairman, Senate Committee on Judiciary, Human Rights and Legal Matters, Senator Micheal Opeyemi Bamidele has assured the good people of Ekiti Central constituency of his readiness to continue to build on the foundational legacy he has laid.

Opeyemi who also doubles as Chairman of Southern Senators Forum of the 9th Assembly also maintained that he would never take the decision of the leadership of All Progressive Congress (APC) in Ekiti State to return him back to Senate through an unopposed party ticket for granted.

MOB as he us fondly called  in a statement issued by his media office after he was screened by the APC Senatorial Screening Panel in Abuja pledged to do everything humanly possible to ensure that the party emerged victorious at the forthcoming June 18, 2022, Governorship Elections in the State. 

He commended the Screening Committee for proper organisation and conduct of the screening process .

"I do not take it for granted that I am being returned unopposed as the Flagbearer of our party in the 2023 Ekiti Central Senatorial elections.

" It means so much to me, I am grateful to the leadership of APC in Ekiti State and grateful to the leadership of the party at the National level. I am also grateful to the people of Ekiti Central Senatorial District for this honor. I don't take it for granted at all.

 That no one is running against me in this race for the ticket of the party is an endorsement of my humble efforts in ensuring effective representation in the Senate in the last three years. It is also an acknowledgment by the leadership of the party and members of the party that I could be entrusted with the position of an elected Representative of the people and one of the leaders of our people in this tough time"

 "It is not that we don't have equally qualified people or eligible people who can obtain the form. But the fact that this has not happened and the leadership of the party has done so much to ensure that I am given a smooth ride to be the candidate of the party, is, to me a sincere and profound effort and from whom to whom much is given, much is also expected.

" It  is a call to further and greater duty.  I will do everything possible to ensure the unity of the party through meaningful reconciliation where it is still necessary to do so and to ensure to drive a process in which there will be integrity and mutual trust."

On Ekiti Governorship Election, MOB declared that he will be going back home, to an  immediate assignment, which is  to go and campaign thoroughly and vigorously to ensure the victory of our party in the June 18 Governorship Election in Ekiti

 " I believe that is the next assignment I am looking forward to and I will put in my best in this regard by the Grace of God."
