Lagos state Governor and Chairman, All Progressives Congress (APC) National Campaign Council for Ondo State Governorship election, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, joined the campaign train of Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu on Monday as they stormed the southern senatorial district of the state.

The Lagos State Governor drummed support for the APC candidate, assuring that Akeredolu is not a traitor that will betray confidence of people of the state.

Addressing party supporters at Okitipupa, Sanwo-Olu stated that Akeredolu and Lucky Aiyedatiwa, the running mate, would not turn their back against the people after election.

According to him,  the APC government has a plan to link Lagos to the state through the coastal area which would ease traffic bottlenecks. Sanwo-Olu did not, however, specify whether the project would be funded by the Federal or Lagos State government.

”APC government is planning to work on the bridge linking Lagos to Ondo State through Ilaje area. This will make travellers to spend just 30 minutes, or thereabouts, to get to Lagos.

“Akeredolu has done well and he will do more,” he added.

Reiterating on his promises, Akeredolu vowed that the APC government would restore power to the area.

”Haven’t you seen our schools? We still have much to do. I know your priority here now, and it is electricity. When our government came in, there was no electricity supply but we are lucky that the Executive Director of the Niger Delta Power Holding, Ife Oyedele is from Ikale and he has been doing something on the electricity.

”How electricity supply will be restored, an agreement with Omotosho Power Plant will be signed.”

The Ondo State Governorship Election holds on October 10.
