Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the Lagos
state governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), says he
did not sign any deal that will prevent him for seeking re-election if he
becomes the state governor.
Speaking during a Channels TV
programme on Tuesday, Sanwo-Olu said he is “going to win” at the March 2
governorship polls.
“I don’t know where the idea of
pact or agreement came from. But I can tell you for a fact that there is
nothing of such. I didn’t sign a deal with anyone,” he said.
“There is only one term of four
years on the INEC form, so it will be up to the people of Lagos state to
determine whether I deserve another term based on my performance.”
On the elections, Sanwo-Olu said
the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) should not assess it’s popularity by the
crowd at its campaigns as crowds do not translate to votes.
“I think we need to understand
that crowd during political rallies is not always the same as voting on
election days,” he said.
“I can confirm to you that crowd
is not the same as actual voting. A lot happens on the election days.
Mobilisation of voters, for example, is a critical element of election.
“So, I’ll advise that the PDP
should not jubilate over what they perceive as a large turnout at the Kano
rally.”
