Ondo indigenes in Diaspora, especially those from Ondo South Senatorial District of the State have been called upon not to forget their root, but support Senator Nicholas Tofowomo’s determination to ensure development and improved life for the people of the district back home.
The call was made by the Special adviser to the Senator on Diaspora and International Relations, Mr Segun Erinle, while expressing joy at the return of Senator Nicholas to the National Assembly today, after a fatal auto crash.

Mr Erinle who thanked the senator’s colleagues, party loyalists, people from his senatorial districts, friends and families among others said, the September 5 accident, involving 4 occupants almost took the life of the senator, but to the glory of God no life was lost.
