The candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for Lagos West Senatorial District, Dr. Idiat Adebule has solicited the continued support of youths in the district for the actualization of her ambition as well as that of the presidential candidate of the party, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the gubernatorial candidate, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu and others.
The former deputy governor made the appeal over the weekend when she hosted a thousand youths from the 28 LGAs and LCDAs in Lagos West under the aegis of Adebule Youth Ambassador (AYA).
In her address, Adebule commended the ambassadors for their unflinching support and commitment to her aspiration and anticipated success at the polls as she gave further insight into her manifestos promising that she will use the instrumentality of the legislature to raise the bar of representation when she emerges.
Adebule added that she will sponsor and promote beneficial and impactful policies for the common good of all, especially in the areas of job and wealth creation.
“I will let not let you down, I will within the resources in my capacity ensure that your interests are catered for. We will work to train some of you on different skills, we will also empower you at the end of the trainings. We will also work to facilitate job opportunities for our youths.”
“As we begin our campaign activities, I want you all to remain disciplined in engaging your colleagues, we want you to go all out from house to house and street to street to campaign for our party. We will give you all the support you will need to succeed,
She went on to urge the ambassadors to sustain their electioneering for all APC Candidates in the state and maintain the high level of discipline and civility at which they’ve been carrying out campaign activities.
Earlier, the Special Adviser to the Governor of Lagos State on Special Duties and Intergovernmental Relations, Mr Mobolaji Ogunlende who surprisingly graced the event commended the ambassadors for their selflessness.
Ogunlende charged them to take the party’s message further into the grassroots and galvanize more support for all the candidates.
In the same vein, the Director General of the Adebule Campaign Team, Hon. Rasaq Ajala, charged the youth with a continued commitment to the cause.
He encouraged them to use their numerical strength to command victory for Adebule as well as Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Governor Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu and other candidates of the party.
Another major highlight of the carnival-like event was when the group handed over a unique flag to Dr. Idiat Adebule to further demonstrate their endorsement of her aspiration. All ambassadors also confidently and boastfully displayed their Permanent Voters Cards (PVCs), showing their readiness to cast their votes in the elections.
Also worthy of mention was also the presentation of appointment letters to the arrowheads of the support group in the 28 LGAs and LCDAs by the incoming senator.
One of the conveners, Comrade Ademosu, Jamiu explained that Adebule’s impressive track record as a core progressive won the youth to her side noting that the group will explore every means to garner support and see to her victory come 2023.
Also in attendance at the colourful event were the Senior Special Adviser to Governor Sanwo-Olu on Youth, Hon. Saheed Akanbi Ade; Executive Chairman of Oriade LCDA, Hon. Ramotalai Akinlola Hassan; her counterpart from Ojo LGA Hon. Rasulu Olusola Idowu; Directors and members of Adebule Campaign Council, Adebule Babes as well as coordinators from the 28 LGAs and LCDAs across Lagos West among others.
