Heyden Oil Chairman, Dapo Abiodun, has expressed his intention to contest in the Ogun state governorship election in 2019 on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The businessman, who made the declaration in his house in Iperu-Remo on Friday during a press briefing, noted that despite the successes recorded by the current administration in the state, it could be better.
Abiodun, who had contested the Senatorial seat of the Ogun East District in 2015, said it was high time seasoned and successful private sector players came into politics and turned around the fortunes of Nigeria and Nigerians at all levels of governance.
He said if elected the governor of the state, he would turn the state into an industrial hub, where he would ensure that there was constant supply of electricity.
While he alluded to his streak of successes in his private business, Abiodun explained that he would bring in his experience, expertise, and character in taking the state to the next level of development and making it attractive to investors.
