Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, has thanked Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, his Deputy, Obafemi Hamzat, and the Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu, for their support.

This was said by the former Lagos State governor during a visit to the monarch on Sunday, shortly after securing the APC presidential ticket for the 2023 general elections.

Tinubu also asked local government councillors and chairmen to mobilize voters for the impending general elections in 2023.

"I want to express my gratitude to the Governor of Lagos State, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu, and his Deputy, Obafemi Hamzat, for their dedication and hard work," he stated. You can't have a successful leader without a strong backup, and you can't have a successful leader without a strong backup.I am not one of those persons who will tell you what he wants to hear. Tinubu has the people's support, and I often tell Governor Sanwo-Olu and his deputy, Hamzat, that they must work hard as well, and that God will continue to bless them.

"We are about to embark on a new journey that will be fruitful. "I want to assure all the youths that our administration will provide them with full employment and that everything will be well," he stated.
