I’ll defeat Ambode —Agbaje

Jimi Agbaje, governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos state, yesterday expressed confidence in his ability to defeat the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Akinwumi Ambode, in the Lagos gubernatorial poll.

Agbaje faulted the state government’s failure to pay the N18,000 minimum wage and leave bonus meant for civil servants in the state. He promised to ensure prompt payment of the wage if elected into office.

Promising to ensure that non-indigenes are given a voice in the state, he said “we have said that the indigenes must live together because the moment you drive away the non-indigenes, Lagos will become a village.”
Also speaking, state chairman of the party, Tunji Shelle, urged the people of the state to cast their votes for the party’s candidate, saying, “he is well prepared for the job. God has given him all the abilities to govern Lagos State. He is the man God will use to deliver Lagos from the APC”.
The APC candidate Akinwunmi Ambode meanwhile has been called a puppet by Senator Musiliu Obanikoro, the former minister of state for defense.
