APC:Tinubu holds campaign in Lagos,roads blocked 

The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) played host to a presidential campaign rally for the party’s presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, at the Teslim Balogun Stadium Lagos on Saturday,November 26th.

The Teslim Balogun Stadium was filled to capacity for a carnival-like rally with tight security to protect the lives of those who poured out to show their support of the APC presidential candidate.

The state government had earlier announced temporary diversion of traffic in preparation for the rally. This was done in anticipation of the mass movement of party members and supporters within the vicinity of the venue of the rally in Surulere area of Lagos.

The Director-General of the Local Organising Committee (LOC) for the presidential campaign rally in Lagos State Campaign Council, Senator Ganiyu Solomon, said the rally was a sort of homecoming for the former Lagos State governor who is now the current presidential candidate of the APC.

Solomon pointed to the massive turnout of members of the APC and supporters as an attestation of the popularity of Asiwaju Tinubu, whom he also called the most consistent and biggest contributor to democracy since the advent of democracy in 1999.

“Asiwaju Tinubu excelled as a Senator of the Federal Republic representing Lagos West Senatorial District, and as the Governor of Lagos State between 1999 and 2007. Therefore, the event is like a homecoming for our leader,” the former federal lawmaker said.
