The All Progressives Congress (APC) says Babajide Sanwo-Olu,
governor of the state, does not need the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to get
re-elected for a second term in office in 2023.
The APC said this in reaction to comments credited to Ganiu
Taofik, a PDP chieftain in Lagos state.
Taofik had said the party is ready to receive the governor
if he wants to get re-elected.
In a statement on Friday, Seye Oladejo, Lagos APC spokesman,
described PDP’s gubernatorial ticket as “worthless”.
Oladejo said the PDP should desist from its attempts to
destabilise the ruling party through the “deliberate promotion of falsehood”.
“While the thought of desperately offering its worthless
electoral tickets to every passerby is laughable, the extent of the level of
degradation, degeneration and comatose state of Lagos state PDP should not be
lost on all and sundry,” he said.
“The platform that initially elected Governor Babajide
Olusola Sanwoolu, having acknowledged his glowing performance across various
sectors in his first term, is certainly still available to recontest for
another term.
“While we sympathize
with Lagos state PDP over its several years of political misfortunes and
misadventures, good wisdom dictates that it puts its house in order to have a
semblance of relevance.
“It’s pitiable that PDP could only think of fishing in the
pool of capable talents in the APC while looking for people to offer its
worthless electoral tickets.
“This underscores the lack of attraction in the PDP and an
admittance of its usual waterloo in the forthcoming elections.
“Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu hereby unequivocally rejects
this Greek gift and hereby states that APC remains his party of choice in
making his next political move, which will be made known in due course to all
Lagosians.”
