Artisans and technicians in Lagos State have pledged their support toward the re-election of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for the March 11 gubernatorial poll in Lagos State.
The
artisans and technicians under the umbrella of the Association of Lagos
Artisans and Technicians (ASLAT) boasted that they were beneficiaries of
Governor Sanwo-Olu's good governance, and would reciprocate the kind gesture
with a massive vote for the All Progressive Congress (APC) and its candidates
on Saturday.
The
association declared their support for Governor Sanwo-Olu and all APC
candidates for the forthcoming governorship and House of Assembly elections
during a press conference held in Ikeja, Lagos on Tuesday.
The
press conference was addressed by the Executive Secretary of ASLAT, Mr. Adesina
Akinyemi, as well as the association's President, Engr. Lawrence Ajayi and
Chairman, Board of Trustees, Asiwaju Jacob Fayeun.
Speaking
at the press conference, Akinyemi said Sanwo-Olu's led administration has
invested massively in the capacity building of over 35, 000 Lagos artisans and
technicians through training and retraining, and also empowered them with
modern tools and machinery.
He,
therefore, urged residents of the state and every member of the association who
were eligible to vote, to vote for Governor Sanwo-Olu and other APC candidates
on March 11.
Akinyemi
declared that the association strategy of ‘Operation 30:30,’ which is to ensure
30 votes by artisans and technicians in each of the 13,000 polling units in
Lagos State, would deliver over 390,000 votes for Governor Sanwo-Olu from the
artisans and technicians in all the nooks and crannies of the State.
He
said: “The race to Lagos State governorship election is on, and out of all the
contestants jostling for this plum job, it is only Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu
who has reached out to us to solicit our support and he is the only one we
know. He is the only one we have tested. He is the only one who has proved
himself capable and ready to do the work of governor of Lagos State and also he
is the only one we can trust.
“I
am happy and pleased to announce to the world that the Association of Lagos
Artisans and Technicians (ASLAT) has adopted and will support massively Mr.
Babajide Sanwo-Olu in his ambition to succeed himself as the governor of Lagos
State.
“I,
therefore, call on all our members across 20 local governments and 37 LCDAs in
Lagos State to come out en-masse based on Operation 30:30 voting pattern to
vote for Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Saturday, March 11, 2023.”
Also
speaking, the President of ASLAT, Engr. Lawrence Ajayi urged artisans and
technicians in the 20 local governments and 37 Local Council Development Areas
(LCDAs) of the state to come out en-masse on Saturday to deliver their polling
units for Governor Sanwo-Olu and all the APC candidates.
The
National President of Block Builders in Nigeria, Omooba Adesegun Banjoko, said
artisans and technicians in Lagos will support Governor Sanwo-Olu’s re-election
100 percent. “We have our PVCs and we will demonstrate our support for him by
voting for him. With our Operation 30:30 strategy, let us go and deliver for
Sanwo-Olu,” he said.
Appreciating the association's support during the press conference, former Permanent Secretary, of the Ministry of Wealth Creation, Mr. Abdulhakeem Mustapha, promised that more benefits await artisans and technicians if Governor Sanwo-Olu is re-elected on March 11th.
