To the good people of Lagos: As today winds down and our campaign officially comes to a close, let me be the first to thank each and everyone of you for your prayers, support and well-wishes throughout the course of this campaign.
A little over 3-months ago, I set out on a bold journey to CHANGE how government works not just for a few elites but for ordinary people.
It was clear from the beginning that I would face a formidable adversary in the
APC - an incumbent party with a political machinery built and honed over the
last 16-years. But I understood that as a candidate if I presented my case with
the utmost level integrity; if I spoke from the heart about the challenges and
the opportunities that we face as a state, the people will in return respond. I
knew if I anchored my vision on the very values that shaped me as a young man
as well as the principles of empathy, hard work and integrity that have guided
me in life, Lagosians will come out of every nook and cranny of this vibrant
state to support my candidacy.
Today, each and
everyone of you have made this campaign what it is. With your voice, you have
created a new narrative in our local politics. A narrative where ideas matter
and ordinary people do have a say in future of our state. Because you chose to
participate, we've been able to challenge the status-quo. Because you chose not
to settle for nothing other than the best, our impending victory is in clear
sight.
