The wait is over as Lagos State governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has gotten the nod from his political godfather, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to contest for a second tenure in office.
On Friday, the former Lagos governor and other members of the state chapter of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) expressed their support for the governor and Obafemi Hamzat, his deputy, to continue for another four years.
Last month, the Governor’s Advisory Council (GAC), the highest decision-making body of the APC in Lagos, endorsed the reelection bid of Sanwo-Olu.
But the endorsement was soon opposed by the Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC), noting that it violates the principle of rotational governance between Christians and Muslims in the state.
