My party is formed to address that challenge. “Ogun people are not interested in where the governor comes from, they want to know if he has the capacity to create jobs for the children who remain idle even after graduating from higher institutions.
That is what our party promises: jobs, jobs, jobs for everyone.” Speaking on his plans for local councils, Bankole pledged not to tamper with funds meant for the development of local councils in the state, saying: “ADP is a party with one agenda and that is mass employment.
