LAGOS EAST BYE- ELECTION: ABIRU CONSULTS STAKEHOLDERS IN IGBOGBO/BAYEKU LCDA FOR VICTORY, RECEIVES BLESSINGS FROM ROYAL HEADS. He will enhance the provision of effective, visionary and purposeful leadership when he resume as a Senator, Party Leaders Assure.

Stepping up his plan to clinch victory at the Lagos East Senatorial Bye-Election in October 31, the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Mr Mukhail Adetokunbo Abiru, has continued with the “coast-to-coast” consultations with party stakeholders, opinion leaders and TACT members.

The consultation according to the senatorial candidate, will enable him to seek advice from major stakeholders, in and outside the APC, which could be pivotal to winning the bye-election and also cementing a long-term  relationship with his constituents.

Abiru was accompanied on the trip by some serving and past government officials, Legislators, top party leaders and hundreds of supporters.

The train’s first port of call was to meet the Royal Heads in Igbogbo/Bayeku LCDA, His Royal Majesties, Oba AbdulSemiu Orimadegun Kasali, Adeboruwa of Igbogbo Kingdom and Oba Richard Ogunsanya, Olubeshe of Ibeshe land, at the Palace of Adeboruwa in Igbogbo, where the Chairman, Igbogbo/Bayeku LCDA, Bldr Olusesan Mayokun Daini, led the proceedings.

The Campaign DG, Asipa Kaoli Olusanya, described the visit to Adeboruwa Palace as “timely and pivotal,” while urging the good people of Igbogbo/Bayeku LCDA to transform the population in the area to votes on October 31, MegaXpression reports.

"With our proportion, it is expected that our votes should be enough for our candidate, Mr Abiru Tokunbo. We want to proof a point in this bye-election against the numbers of votes coming out from the North," Kaoli said.

The APC flagbearer, Mr Mukhail Adetokunbo Abiru, eloquently thanked the Royal Heads for their uncommon style of leadership, assuring them of quality representation when he gets to the Senate. 

"I have worked as an economist and accountant. My research made it known to me that all the previous Senators from the Lagos East did a good job without no dirty deeds, so, I am making a promise that you won't regret electing me in the position of a Senator", Abiru assured. 

He further stated that he has met Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu and Mr Babatunde Fashola, Minister of Work and Housing, on the state of roads in Ikorodu Division, assuring that government is intensifying efforts to fast track the completion of the ongoing road projects.

Abiru, therefore called on  the good people of the LCDA to remain supportive, promising to raise the bar of representation beyond the expectations of all and sundry. Enjoining all to make available their PVCs, come out enmas on the 31st of October and vote for him and APC.

The team later subsequently moved with a mammoth crowd of supporters, chanting ‘Abiru Bambam’ to meet the stakeholders across Igbogbo/Bayeku LCDA, at the Onas Event Centre Igbogbo. 

Addressing the mamouth crowd, Asiwaju Olorunfunmi Basorun, a GAC member and former SSG, Lagos State, urging the electorate to support Tokunbo Abiru, being a committed person who could pursue the interest of Lagos East Senatorial with vigour in the National Assembly.

Also, a Senator who has represented the district in the past, Senator Adeseye Ogunlewe, said the consultations will imbue Mr Tokunbo Abiru with some fresh ideas that will enhance the provision of effective, visionary and purposeful leadership when he resumes as a Senator.

The House of Reps. Member, representing Ikorodu federal Constituency and Chairman House Committee on Defence, Hon. Babajimi Adegoke Benson, equally enjoined all to vote massively for APC on October 31. "Abiru is a tested and trusted individual, he will be a people-oriented Senator," Benson assured.
