Babatunde Fashola, minister of
power, works and housing, says Babajide Sanwo-Olu, governorship candidate of
the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Lagos state, is in the best position to
lead the state.
Speaking at a pre-campaign event
in Surulere, Lagos on Friday, the ex-governor said Sanwo-Olu displayed his
“competence” when he served as a commissioner under him.
“I am in a vantage position to
tell Lagosians about the readiness of Babajide Sanwo-Olu to govern our state,”
he said.
“He served under me as a
commissioner and I can attest to his competence. He is a man with a Midas touch
and has national outlook. He delivered on tasks given to him and I have no doubt
he will deliver if he is charge.
“He is positioned to lead and he
is ever ready to lead. I know he is prepared for this job and he will deliver.”
Fashola also hailed the decision
of the Coalition of Political Parties in Lagos State (COPPILS), to adopt the
candidacy of President Muhammadu Buhari and Sanwo-Olu as their presidential and
governorship candidates respectively.
He said the APC was poised to
take the country to the “Next Level” with investments in infrastructure and
employment to drive economic growth and development.
Taking swipe at Atiku Abubakar, Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) presidential candidate,
Fashola said his policy paper was “impracticable” and “a strategy of
lies”.
