NANS in a letter addressed to the governor and signed by the Ondo State Chairman of the NANS-JCC, Comrade Oluwarotimi in Akure, the state capital Joshua said, “This is our reasonable appeal to our parents, guardians and every lover of Ondo State, that having resolved through engagement of the Students’ Union leadership of tertiary institutions in the state, it is our wish that you all will share this aspiration with us and we hope to effectively pursue it by recommending Marindoti as Deputy Governor to Governor Lucky Ayedatiwa.

The letter read in part, “Marindoti is a youth who has been advocating for the oppressed, and contributing to social development. We are convinced that with his youthful energy, he will inspire the youths of Ondo State and also be their mouthpiece, because the youth’s constituency is and remains the largest.”
