As the July 12 Local Government Election in Lagos State draws near, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has sent a high powered message to all members of his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) to work hard and ensure that the party attains an all-round victory in the election.
The Governor of the state, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu who delivered the presidential message to the party members noted with emphasis that President Bola Tinubu has mandated all APC faithfuls, leaders and members alike, to ensure the party's victory in Lagos.
Mr. Sanwo-Olu charged all the All APC candidates, leaders and stakeholders to work for the ruling party's victory in the council polls as ordered by President Tinubu.
He urged all the party members to be united, work together and campaign in all the nooks and crannies of the 57 council areas to ensure that all the APC chairmanship and councillorship candidates win the local government elections.
Governor Sanwo-Olu spoke on Tuesday during a Stakeholders’ Special Engagement with him ahead of the 2025 council elections.
The event, which was held at Lagos House, Marina, was attended by members of the Governance Advisory Council, Lagos State Executive Council, party executives, federal and state lawmakers, party candidates, apex leaders and other stakeholders in the ruling party.
He said: "Every election is local. Don't take anything for granted. Go and work; go and engage. Go and touch everyone that needs to be reached. Let the people see those that they want to vote for. Let the people know the candidates they want to vote for.
"We must come out in our large numbers to campaign for our candidates. We must go out and cast our votes and wait for them to count our votes. We must wait for them to announce our results.
"We have come here to encourage ourselves. Let us go out and campaign for all the candidates. Let us go out and ensure a huge victory is for them. From the victory, let us see that indeed, the APC is a validly supported party in Lagos State.
"We are a party that is committed. We don't take people for granted, and we want the best for our people at all times. We in Lagos State APC will abide fully with the constitution. We will obey and follow all of the guidelines that have been set out by LASIEC. We will do the right thing at all times."
