Mimiko who is the Governor of Ondo State noted that the former ruling party is putting everything together in order to regain its lost glory.

The governor made this statement at the Akure airport during a mini-reception organized for him on his return from Abuja.

Mimiko said the PDP governors will be on the forefront in the rebuilding process of their beloved party.

He said: “We must sustain enthusiasm in our party and as governors who have pivotal roles to play in rebranding our party, we must show in terms of governance that there is a difference between us (PDP), and the APC, and these are the challenges before us as PDP governors.

“As the opposition party, our engagement will be robust. We must offer alternative policy platform and programme when we criticise one. We must show Nigerians that we are a different party from the one they use to know" he said.
