While acknowledging the frequent mentions of the APC at the event, Ladoja emphasized that the occasion was not a political rally but rather a chance to commend Tinubu for supporting the road project.
“I keep hearing everyone talk about APC. Bola Tinubu is not just an APC man; he is working hard and deserves to be president for a considerable time,” he stated.
He emphasized that Tinubu should be recognized as the president of the nation as a whole, rather than through his political party affiliation. “He deserves more than being labeled an APC president. He is the president of Nigeria,” Ladoja commented.

“The key factor to consider is that his performance could assist the APC in winning elections. We are not overlooking the president’s achievements,” he shared.
Ladoja further remarked, “We believe he merits a long term, even while other parties claim presence without visibility.”
He concluded by stating that the ultimate decision will rest with the electorate during the next election, saying, “We are confident that when the election comes, the people of Ibadan will voice their opinions.”
