“We’ve no doubt in our mind that though Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Governor Sanwo-Olu are the best candidates for President and Governor respectively, we also have to seek God’s favour because we can’t achieve anything without His blessings and approval,” Oba Akinloye said.
His views were corroborated by the Secretary of the Awori Obas Council and Osolo of Isolo, His Royal Majesty Kabiru Agbabiaka. “We’ve the best candidates and we are extremely happy about that but we must also tell God, call on Him to assist us. This is what we’ve come here to do today, seeking God’s favour and approval for Tinubu/Shettima and Sanwo-Olu/Hamzat,” Oba Agbalagba said.
The Lagos State APC Chairman, Pastor Cornellius Oyefolu Ojelabi commended the traditional rulers for organizing the prayer session noting that seeking favour from God is important in any endeavour or enterprise one finds himself.
“Our Kaabiyesis have shown their support for their sons: Tinubu/Shettima and Sanwo-Olu/Hamzat. This prayer session is also important for us to achieve our aim and I’m really impressed by the gesture our fathers here,” Ojelabi said.
The Lagos APC Chairman assured the traditional rulers that the APC administration at both state and national levels will continue to put in place programmes that will improve their welfare.
He called on the traditional rulers to take the Tinubu and Sanwo-Olu message to their subjects urging them to mobilise their subjects to come out and vote massively for Tinubu/Shettima and Sanwo-Olu/Hamzat.
