The rally will hold at the Metropolitan Square, along Asa Dam road, in Ilorin.
He said that, “with the current level of ineptitude and incompetence of the ruling All Progressives Congress government, “the PDP, has much more to offer Nigerians in terms of governance experience at managing a diverse country like Nigeria.”
He lamented that there had been a spiral decline in major economic indices, unprecedented poverty levels, worsening unemployment situation, increased level of insecurity and embarrassing level of corruption.
Dr. Ajeigbe, said “it is incontrovertible that our candidate, Atiku Abubakar, is versatile and highly experienced politician who has the capacity to take this country out of its current quagmire.”
