The Peoples Democratic Party’s governorship candidate for Lagos State, Mr Jimi Agbaje, yesterday called on the electorate to vote for only credible leaders in the February 14 and February 28 elections.
Agbaje made this call at PDP’s thanksgiving service held at St. Paul’s Anglican Church, Kirikiri, Apapa in Lagos.
According to Agbaje, the nation will witness changes when the right persons are voted into office.
“God works in mysterious ways. In 2011, I was not allowed to pick the ticket, but in 2015, we are running and we have every hope that our time has come.
“There will be peaceful co-existence if we work together as indigenes and non-indigenes of the state because united we stand and divided we fall.
“My wish is that in Lagos State, children in public schools will do better than children in private schools.
”It is the responsibility of the government to provide adequate housing and a good road network for its citizens; that is what I will focus on when I am voted in,” he said.”
Speaking at the service, the Vicar and Archdeacon of the church, Ven. Levi Opara, prayed that there should be peace in the country during and after the elections.
“2015 will be the best year. God will not disappoint Nigerians if we relate with Him as He will make 2015 to be successful.
“The agenda of the enemies will not prevail in this country,” he added.
The service was attended by many dignitaries, including Chief Olabode George, a former Deputy National Chairman of the party, as well as its Lagos State Chairman, Chief Tunde Shelle.
