After the national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, and the Governance Advisory Council (GAC) in Lagos State

approved the second term bid of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, it seemed the coast was clear for his return to Alausa.

Some members of the GAC include the National Leader of the APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu; Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu; the Deputy Governor, Mr. Obafemi Hamzat; Minister of Works and Housing, Mr.

“I tell you something, this is a very serious business and the people are involved, God is involved. And the voice of the people is the voice of God. I tell you something; no power has ever been able to stop the people who yearn for change, freedom and their dignity. That is what this struggle is all about.”

“You say I will step on the toes of the leadership. I am not afraid to step on toes and you will see that in the last three weeks, I have been stepping on toes and I will continue to step on toes as long as I am stepping on toes in the interest of the people of Lagos State and it will continue.

“It is about some questions that must be answered, who owns Lagos, who owns the resources of Lagos and who should benefit from those resources. So the party leaders should not have any problem about that, the party leaders should rather embrace us because we are pushing the people’s agenda. And they can also take from us and start doing it because they are in the government now. We are saying we can do it better than them.

He said this would reset the state on a new trajectory of security and inclusive prosperity. “I am running for office because I believe in the promise of Lagos and the capacity of its people to be great. I do not see Lagos as just one of the 36 states of Nigeria; I see it as a city-state capable of attaining self-sufficiency in provision of amenities for all inhabitants, just like Dubai.

ON his part, Mustapha said he has what it takes to address some of the yearnings of the people of Lagos.
