He said, “Gov. Sanwo-Olu’s re-election no doubt is a reaffirmation that he enjoys a deep-rooted confidence of the people whom he has served in the past four years as their governor.
“He is a clear testimony to the fact that APC parades the best governors who have gone ahead to demonstrate capacity, character and competence in their various states.
“It is our hope that His Excellency, Gov. Babajide Sanwo-Olu will record more beautiful milestones in infrastructural transformation, education, economic, sports, housing and transportation system revitalization.”.
He also commended the APC National Special Intervention Committee in Lagos which was set up to coordinate efforts to ensure the re-election of Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
