Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate for Lagos State, Mr Jimi Agbaje, on Thursday, concluded his campaigns, urging Lagosians to come out to vote on Saturday and liberate themselves from the shackles of those he called Pharaoh and their cohorts under whom they had suffered for 20 years.
The candidate made the call while on a campaign tour of Surulere and Eti-Osa local government areas, saying his tour through the local governments showed that the excitement of Lagosians to elect new leadership for the state was being subdued by fears that their votes could be manipulated and would not count.
According to a statement by his Director of Media and Publicity, Mr. Felix Oboagwina, a tumultuous traffic of admirers trooped out to applaud Agbaje and his running mate, Mrs. Haleemat Oluwayemisi Busari, whose long line of vehicles wound through the streets around the National Stadium, Alaka, Adelabu, Aguda and Coker all in Surulere.
It said their long motorcade hit the Orile-Badagry expressway and veered into the Apapa-Oshodi Expressway before making its way to Eti-Osa, the last council on Agbaje’s breakneck itinerary since he began campaigning on December 1.
The campaign train of Agbaje and Busari were joined in Surulere, by the duo of Hon. Abdullateef Aremu and Hon. Benjamin Olasunkanmi, PDP candidates for Surulere in the House of Assembly elections.
“We urge the citizens of Lagos, indigenes and non-indigenes to come out to exercise their voting rights on Saturday. Rather than nurse fears about whether our votes will count, we should come up determined to guard our votes,” Agbaje said.
Recalling his tour of the local governments, Agbaje said that it had been a reaffirmation of his determination to free Lagos from the shackles of the Pharaoh and cohorts who had held the state captive for the past 20 years.
“This is the season of Jubilee; this is the time for freedom, and Lagos must seize the moment.
“Lagos people must speak through their votes and democratically throw out the slave masters who have employed impunity and corruption to keep the people subjugated and the land undeveloped,” he added.
Agbaje promised to keep the social contract with citizens by fulfilling all the letters of his manifesto and his pronouncements during his statewide campaign.
“We are committed to the promises made. Nothing will stop us when we get into office to deliver on qualitative education in public schools with emphasis on infrastructure and teachers’ welfare, a truly democratic and independent local government system, a universal health insurance scheme, potable water, world-class rails, electricity supply and human capital development for the educated and the artisans,” the PDP governorship candidate said.
