The Speaker of Lagos State House of Assembly, Mudashiru Obasa has expressed strong conviction that the 2027 election will be a walk-over for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu just as Ojokoro LCDA reaffirmed support for Tinubu’s victory.
Obasa made the declaration over the weekend at the launching of ‘Tinubu 2027’ in Ojokoro LCDA in a bid to galvanize support for President Tinubu’s victory.
At the carnival-like event held at the Local Government Playing Ground, Ojokoro LCDA, Obasa commended the council area for leading the charge in mobilizing support for Tinubu while urging them to match their words with actions such as increasing advocacy on the need for eligible voters to get their Permanent Voter’s Card (PVC).
He also called for peace among the leaders and members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the council area, stressing the need for a united and formidable front heading into the elections.
While expressing confidence that the election will be a walkover for Tinubu, he urged political leaders, elected officials, and appointees across the council area to play their parts assiduously.
“The President is doing wonderfully well. Within two years his achievements are unprecedented, we can imagine what more he will still do. Let’s play our parts by being available to our people and by drawing them closer. If we do this, I am sure the election will be a walk-over for APC and President Bola Tinubu come 2027,” Obasa said.
Earlier in his remarks, the coordinator, Hon. Emmanuel Olotu, declared that the move had become necessary to prove that the council area remains Tinubu’s stronghold and to muster support for his re-election.
Olotu, who is the lawmaker representing Ifako-Ijaiye Constituency II at the Lagos State House of Assembly, further hinged the initiative on Tinubu’s unprecedented successes since assuming office in 2023, reiterating that “indeed, a good turn deserves another.”
The Chairman, House Committee on Agriculture, emphasized that the council has put structures in place to galvanize massive support for Tinubu in the 2027 presidential election.
While highlighting President Tinubu’s strides in retooling the economy and improving the lives of Nigerians, Olotu called on all and sundry to rally round the former Lagos State Governor in his sincere quest to cement Nigeria’s status as a true giant of Africa.
Other notable dignitaries in attendance included the member representing Ifako-Ijaiye Federal Constituency, Hon. Benjamin Adeyemi Olabinjo; the Council Chairman, Mrs. Oluyemisi Rosiji; the Paramount Ruler of Ifako-Ijaiye/Ojokoro Land, HRM Oba Oluwalambe Taiwo; former House of Assembly Member, Hon. Ipoola Omisore; former Lagos State Commissioner for Physical Planning, Hon. Idris Salako; former Managing Director of the Lagos State Signage and Advertising Agency (LASAA), Barrister Mobolaji Sanusi; and former Chairman of Ojokoro LCDA, Hon. Idowu Tijani, among others.
