The Inter-Party Advisory Council
(IPAC), Lagos State on Friday urged the state Governor-elect, Mr Babajide
Sanwo-Olu to be a father to all residents and prioritise alleviating suffering
of the people.
Alhaji Shakirudeen Olofin, the
state Chairman of IPAC, gave the advice in an interview with the News Agency of
Nigeria (NAN) on the sideline of the presentation of certificates of return to
Sanwo-Olu and his deputy, Dr Obafemi Hamzat.
NAN reports that the Independent
National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Lagos State on Friday presented
certificates of return to Sanwo-Olu and Hamzat at the commission’s headquarters,
in Sabo-Yaba.
“I congratulate the
Governor-elect on his victory at the polls.
“I want to advise him strongly
that after the election, he should assume the role of father; he is now father
to all.
“Election has come and gone, he
is not governing only APC members, he is governing entire Lagosians,” Olofin,
also the state chairman of New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) said.
He advised Sanwo-Olu to put in
place service-oriented governance that would meet the yearnings and aspirations
of the people.
The Governor-elect, he said,
should make Lagos residents enjoy dividends of democracy through good welfare
programmes and people-oriented policies.
“We wish him (Sanwo-Olu) the best
as he takes the leadership of Lagos State from incumbent Governor, Mr Akinwunmi
Ambode and we wish Mr Akinwunmi Ambode the best after his tenure,” he said.
