National leader of the All
Progressives Congress (APC) has
urged chieftains of the party to
mobilize their supporters to vote
during the April 11 governorship
polls.
Tinubu also criticized the leaders
for allowing the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) win five
House of Representatives seats in
the state during the March 28
National Assembly elections.
The APC leader stated this on
Thursday, April 9, 2015 during an
emergency stakeholders held at
the APC Lagos Secretariat in Ikeja.
“You, the party leaders have
disappointed us. For the first time,
we lost five House of
Representatives seats to the
opposition party. This is
unacceptable. It is a huge
disappointment. Though in politics,
you win some, you lose some, you
have failed. So there is no excuse
to fail this time,” Tinubu said.
“Also, you did not come out in
large numbers. Were you afraid?
You have no cause to be afraid as
there was adequate security to
protect you and your property. So
don’t be intimidated by the
sporadic shootings, meant to scare
you away from doing your civic
rights. The Hausa communities
had a very good and encouraging
turn-out, we expect better
performance this time,” he added.
Those present at the meeting were
State Chairman of the party, Henry
Ajomale, Senators Oluremi Tinubu ,
Gbenga Ashafa and Olamilekan
Adeola among others.
