Jonathan congratulates Mimiko



President Goodluck Jonathan on Sunday congratulated Governor Olusegun Mimiko on his declaration by the Independent National Electoral Commission as the winner of Saturday’s governorship election in Ondo State.
In a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Dr. Reuben Abati, the President also commended the dutiful, patriotic and law-abiding electorate of the state as well as the INEC personnel and security agencies who ensured that the elections were peacefully and successfully.
He said the conduct of the election was in tandem with his administration’s commitment to making elections in Nigeria progressively  better organised and more credible.
Jonathan urged Mimiko, as he looks forward to the commencement of his second term in office, to be prepared to work even harder to  justify the fresh mandate given to him by the people of the state who voted for his re-election on Saturday.
The statement reads, “President Jonathan assures Dr. Mimiko that the Federal Government will continue to engage constructively and positively with the Ondo State Government in collaborative efforts to achieve faster socio-economic development and better living conditions for people in the state and all other parts of Nigeria.
“He wishes Dr. Mimiko a very successful second term as Governor of Ondo State.”
