Reinforcing the call for accountability in leadership, APC chieftain Otunba Olasunkanmi Tijani reminded aspirants that public office should be seen as a duty rather than a reward.
“Leadership is not for self-aggrandizement. It’s a responsibility to serve, and we must hold our leaders to that standard,” he asserted.
