A campaign group, ‘I want Sanwo-Olu Campaign Organisati­on’ has promised the governorsh­ip candidate of the All Progressiv­es Congress (APC), Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu nothing less than one million votes in the coming election.

The promise was contained in a statement by the group’s Director of Publicity, Mr. Adewale Oriade, canvassing support for SanwoOlu based on his achievemen­t as Commission­er for Establishm­ent and Training in the administra­tion of Mr. Babatunde Fashola.

According to the group, with our numerical strength across the state and beyond, we have the capacity to mobilise that volume of votes for the APC candidate.

The statement said, “We have confidence that he would build on that experience and step it up to take Lagos State to the next level that would be able to favourably compete with other Mega Cities of the world.”

It said that Sanwo-Olu’s tutelage under Fashola that took the baton of performanc­e from the APC National Leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu would not deviate from the foundation laid by Tinubu and actualised by Fashola, expressing confidence that Lagos is back to another safe hand after Fashola.

It urged the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and other political parties “to wake up from their dreams of wanting to occupy the Alausa Government House next year, the organisati­on warned them to keep off insisting that, “there is no vacancy for any other party in that house beside Sanwo-Olu.”
