She encouraged all voters, especially older ones, to come out and exercise their rights.

Alaraoye said the governor has done well in caring for the elderly since he took office. She believes he deserves another term to continue helping them.

I am confident the incumbent governor will emerge victorious," she said. Her words showed her strong belief in Adeleke's chances and hope for his next term.
