The Governor of Ondo State, Dr. Olusegun Mimiko, on Saturday, said he supported Governor Jonah Jang of Plateau State because he approached him to be his vice-chairmanship candidate at the election of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum.

Mimiko said this in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Eni Akinsola.

Mimiko said he was surprised when the camp of Governor Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers State also picked him as its candidate for the same position without his consent.
