Ondo State Governor, Olusegun Mimiko will, on Thursday, August 14, 2014, collapse his political structure, ‘Iroko Frontiers,’ for a new structure to support President Goodluck Jonathan’s re-election in 2015.
The new platform has been named ‘Believe Nigeria, Trust Goodluck’.
Mr Idris Usman, National Coordinator of the new structure, told Leadership Newspaper that the mission of the political group is to promote Mimiko’s commitment to good governance and visionary leadership.
Usman explained that Governor Mimiko has invested so much in building the structure which is aimed at raising future leaders who can steer the leadership of the Nigerian state towards sustainable growth and development.
“Believe Nigeria, Trust Goodluck’ will be officially inaugurated by Ondo State Governor Olusegun Mimiko in support of President Goodluck Jonathan’s re-election campaign on Thursday, August 14, 2014.
“It is not surprising that though Mimiko is in the Labour Party, he is throwing his political weight behind a candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party. The governor is doing this because of his commitment to good governance and the Nigeria project”, Usman said.
He further disclosed that ‘Believe Nigeria, Trust Goodluck’ would, after its inauguration, swing into action through nationwide mobilisation, seminars, symposiums and town hall meetings.
Usman also noted that Mimiko would, however, oversee the activities of the group to ensure Jonathan’s re-election.
