Mudashiru Obasa, the Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, has urged voters to use their Permanent Voter Cards, PVCs, to vote massively for Sen. Bola Tinubu in the presidential election.
Obasa made the request during the Grand Finale Ceremony of Agege Day Celebrations on Wednesday at Agege Stadium in Agege, Lagos
According to him, Tinubu, the flag bearer of the All Progressives Congress (APC), deserves a rematch of the 1999 election.
The speaker promised Nigerians that electing Tinubu as the next president would ensure that Nigerians would reap more democratic rewards.
This, he claimed, was because the party’s presidential candidate was the only one among the other contestants who possessed the necessary ability and capacity.
He recommended voters to collect their PVCs and, if they had not done so, to proceed to the INEC office as soon as possible, assuming it had not closed.
“Beyond that, make sure you vote right by voting for the person that is competent to serve you, to represent you and bring about the dividends of democracy.
“This is because we strongly believe that Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is the most competent among those, who are vying for the presidency and that is why we are encouraging everybody that they should come out en masse.
“It’s not only about winning, we don’t just want to win, but win with massive votes coming from Lagos to counter whatever will be coming from other places so we can win convincingly.
‘At the end of the day, Tinubu can have a say as opposed to what we witnessed in 1999 when the president that emerged did not gain the support of his people.
“But this time around, we want our president to have the support of all of us from Lagos, Southwest, and other parts of Nigeria.
“His achievements are not limited to infrastructure alone, human development is also key, and that is why we are calling on everybody to let us support this man.
“He has the competence and capability to do the job. So we want others to join us in ensuring the emergence of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu,” he said.
