“On behalf of all the leaders and supporters of our party, I want to sincerely thank all the people of Mopamuro for making the historic win a special one. You have demonstrated unmistakably that power truly belongs to the people.
“We also thank the people for conducting themselves in such an organized manner with the over 50 polling units across Mopamuro speaking in one voice. Your Olawumi Jacob will not let you down.

“We welcome those who challenged our party’s candidate to the Progressive Family. We want them to join hands with the winner in order to move the Local Government forward. In politics, some people will win while some people will lose. But in this case, we all winners.
He commended the Local Government Chairman, Hon. Moses Sunday David for his “political masterclass” that delivered even the Ward of the main oppositions to the All Progressives Congress, saying the Executive Chairman of the Local Government has “justified his position as the Political Bulldozer of Mopamuro LGA”.
The Information Commissioner also commended the State House of Assembly Member, all Government Officials from Mopamuro both at the State and Local Government levels, all the Local Government and Ward Executives of the party as well all party members across Mopamuro, saying when the people stand together, no wall can stop their success.
