Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), and former governor of Lagos state, Bola Ahmed Tinubu yesterday said his party, APC would clear all the local government polls in the July 22 local government polls in Lagos State.
According to him, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) would not win in any of the 57 councils and development areas.
Tinubu said Lagosians would vote for the candidates of the party because Governor Akinwunmi Ambode had lived up to expectation, adding that the people at the grassroots were anticipating the reenactment of the superlative performance across the 20 local governments and 37 local council development areas.
He said if performance and purposeful leadership were the criteria for voting, the electorate would vote for the APC chairmanship and councillorship candidates as they voted for Ambode two years ago.
Tinubu pleaded with members to accept the decision of the party to give automatic tickets to 18 former chairmen in recognition of their loyalty, commitment and efforts and the decision that the sole administrators who took over from the Executive Secretaries (ES) should not contest election.
