SODIPO announced that only the positions of Vice President and General Secretary shall be open to contest, as other eleven offices are unopposed.

He wished the contestants the best of luck, as he charged those who shall eventually emerge to be magnanimous in victory, and that those who might not make it this time, can always get it some other time, urging them to see themselves as brothers, either win or lose.

Also speaking at the parley, a member of the committee, Otunba Adebayo SALAMI, reminded that all candidates must attend the exercise, regardless of being unopposed.

In his response to the concerns raised by some of the candidates, the electoral chairman, SODIPO, assured them of the committee's readiness to conduct a free, fair, and credible election, that will be devoid of any electoral malpractice or administrative negligence.

The meeting had in attendance, the Secretary of the committee, Mrs. Iyabo JOLAOSO-AJAYI, and almost all the contestants.
