“The people’s rights and mandate has been utterly declined,by PDP National Vice Chairman/Zonal Chair South East,how can you be focusing on the House of Reps giving them some form of privileges over the masses.

“You keep complaining from Abuja,Lagos is this, Lagos is that,Lagos State polity is sane and without issues,I am part of the youths in politics today,I stand for the truth, we cannot go on using Lagos as a bait. We have prospect but there are some people coming to decimate our prospect.
“Why is this Deacon brought from South/East that knows nothing about Lagos State polity come in as a returning officer and has come to jeopardize it,striking deals with House of Reps members. He has never confronted the people, even stakeholders or the factions.
“I am not averse to the coming together of the Senator Alli Modu Sheriff and Senator Ahmed Markafi groups but why is he given preference to the House of Reps members, I am a Lagosian and have people letting me know that he had struck a deal with them.
