The Executive Chairman of Agege Local Government Area of Lagos State, Alhaji Ganiyu Kola Egunjobi has urged the residents of the area to eschew violence and actions capable of causing disharmony and friction among them.
Egunjobi gave this advice in his message to residents of the community on the occasion of 58th Independence Anniversary of Nigeria.
“We must not allow our differences as people of different tribes and languages count in our daily dealings among ourselves. Rather, we should see strength in our diversities, and work like ants in their colony to build a virile nation that will be a pride of black race.
“Under the administration of the incumbent President, Muhammadu Buhari, Nigeria has recorded giant stride in the area of infrastructure, agriculture and the fight against the big elephant in the room, corruption. We must all join hands to make the country a better place for the next generation. No matter how little in our small corner, we have a role to play in making or marring this country,” the council chief said.
Speaking further, Egunjobi called on members of All Progressive Congress, APC, in the area, to participate en masse in the party’s governorship primary scheduled for Monday in eleven wards that constituted Agege LG enjoining them to cast their votes for Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
His word, “Sanwo-Eko is the man for the job. He is eminently qualified to make Lagos great again. He is a great listener and highly receptive unlike his rival, who is infamous for his-way-or-the-highway.”
