VOTE AND NOT FIGHT.

Image
Today, I met with all the 6 APC Chairmen, 6 Vice-Chairmen and 30 Councillorship candidates in Ikorodu Federal Constituency.  Remarkably, 10 out of the 30 candidates are females and arguably the first time in Nigeria that our women will get a 30% quota in a political dispensation (IKORODU IS BLAZING THE TRAIL). At the meeting, we all harped on the need for a peaceful conduct of the Local Government elections in their respective areas.  May I also use this opportunity to urge Ikorodu residents to exercise their civic responsibilities by going out en masse to cast their votes peacefully. #VoteNotFight Rep.
