The Makinde-Daura Presidential Campaign Organization (MDPCO) has congratulated its Presidential candidate on the platform of the Allied Peoples Movement (APM), Engr. Seyi Makinde on his conferment of the prestigious Christian Icon Award by the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN).
A statement by MDPCO stated that it was instructive to note that Engr Makinde was the only Presidential Candidate in the 2027 Presidential election that was so honored by CAN, the apex Christian body in Nigeria at the significant event of its Golden Jubilee.
The statement which was signed by Mr. Richard Ihediwa, Director of Strategic Communications of MDPCO stated that the campaign noted that the Christian Icon Award was conferred on leaders who exemplify excellence, integrity, commitment to nation building and values of faith and service in their political endeavours.
It further stated that the conferment of the award on the APM Presidential candidate is therefore significant as it is in recognition of his distinguished public service as evidenced in his record of achievements as the Executive Governor of Oyo State which is marked by integrity, transparency, accountability, vision and commitment to service.
MDPCO further stated; “His stewardship as the Governor of Oyo State which is hallmarked by people-oriented policies, and unparallel infrastructural development with which he repositioned the state in all critical sectors of life has endeared him to Nigerians and for which they are eager to elect him in January 16, 2027 as the next president of the nation
“Engr. Makinde’s leadership style coupled with his sense of humility, compassion, openness and accessibility continue to endear him to Nigerians leading to his emergence as the “most beloved” and “most admired” governor in Nigeria in 2023 and 2024 consecutive country-wide poll by the Nigeria Social Media Week Group (NSG).
“It is clear that Engr. Makinde’s impeccable leadership credentials and his all-inclusive RESET NIGERIA Agenda for national renewal, transparency and accountability in government, efficient public service, revamped productivity for economic prosperity and strengthened security system form the basis for which Nigerians are surging in their millions into the APM in support of the Makinde-Daura Presidency,” it stated.
The MDPCO expressed appreciation for the support and solidarity from Nigerians from all walks of life and urges them to remain steadfast in their determination to use the 2027 Presidential election to end bad governance and usher in a responsible, responsive and purposeful government they yearn for under a Makinde-Daura Presidency.
