Lagos APC PCC Meets Muslim Leaders, Gets Support for Tinubu, Sanwo-Olu, Other Candidates Muslim leaders in Lagos State have reaffirmed their support for the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Asiwaju Bola Tinubu,
Muslim leaders in Lagos State have reaffirmed their support for the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu and other candidates of the party.
The religious leaders comprised the five divisional Imams in Lagos, Chief Imams from the 20 LGAs and 37 LCDAs across the state and heads of religious organizations among others. His words: “We want reassurance; once we get assurance of quality governance and representation, we will offer our votes, our support. This is simple. It is not a matter of emotive support, it is not a matter of whether we are going to vote or we do not know what we want. Not for us personally, not for our pockets but for Nigeria collectively. Whether we are Muslims or Christians or those who do not belong to any religion. That’s the crux of the matter.
Commenting on the engagement, Ojelabi said; “it is a welcome development. It’s a way of encouraging them, sensitizing them to key into the role that is expected of them as a leader. Encouraging their followers to go out there and be participating and to also go all out to participate in the general election. As the chairman of the party, I am before you, soliciting your support for my political party. That’s why I am here. I’ve listened to you. Engagement is a continuous process.
