Jimi Agbaje, the Peoples Democratic Party governorship candidate in Lagos State, has again described Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress, as the candidate of a godfather who controls Lagos affairs.
Agbaje said this in Lagos at a debate organized by The Platform for governorship candidates in Lagos State.
He insisted that it will be difficult for the APC candidate to operate as an independent-minded governor because of the nature of his emergence as a candidate.
According to the PDP candidate, Sanwo-Olu’s loyalty, if he wins the forthcoming election, will definitely not be with Lagosians.
Like other governors before him since 2007, Sanwo-Olu, he argued, will not depart from the already entrenched path of his predecessors who pander to the pleasure of the godfather.
Agbaje, who added that his position on the issue of proxy leadership and godfatherism is well known by Lagosians, warned that Lagos State can only get better when men without godfathers are elected.
