The SDP candidate while speaking, said that people are watching what will be the outcome of the election, hence Tinubu will not dable into the matter.
He added that Tinubu is a democrat and will not tamper with the processes of the election.

Akingboye however, said that he joined the race in order to correct the mistakes made by the past governors of the state.
“Tinubu will not tamper with the Ondo state gubernatorial election. This is because, everybody is watching. My advice for him is that he should just hands off.
“The election will be free and fair. It will be peaceful. Tinubu will not use his power to influence the election.
“All the governors in the state have offered their services based on their capacities. Past governors in Ondo state made 80 per cent mistake, they only recoded 20 per cent success.
“Education wise, we all know that Ondo state was number one when we were with the Ekiti, but now Ondo state is more number one again. Ondo state was number one in Cocoa production.
“As I speaks, Taraba state has surpassed7 Ondo state in the area of Cocoa production. These are the areas they have performed low. We need to know what to do in Ondo state, if Taraba state can be the first in Cocoa production today, why will Ondo state be number 5?”.
