Lagos Gov’ship: Will Of The People Prevailed – Hamzat Politics
Hamzat stated this when he fielded questions from journalists on Channels Television programme: “Sunrise Daily”.The deputy governor said of the 13,345 polling units in the state, only about 349 had one form of issue or the other, stressing that number is less than 10 percent of the polling units in the entire state.
Hamzat said due to infrastructural and logistics problems, the Independent national Electoral Commission could not be everywhere at the same time but did its best in conducting an election that was better than any other in the history of Nigeria. He said, “This is a fantastic election and the will of the people prevailed. Governors lost senatorial seats unlike in the days of former President Olusegun Obasanjo when the number of votes counted was more than the number of registered voters.”
