Ododo described his victory as an act of God, noting that the November 11, 2023 Governorship election was a contest among people from the same family to hold power on behalf of the people of the state.

“I feel elated about our victory and how the judiciary held on to the point of law and stayed away from emotional blackmail and threats to ensure justice is served.

He promised to continue to serve the people with dedication and the fear of God, assuring that members of his team will redouble efforts to bring forth creativity in delivering dividends of democracy to the people of the state.
