The gubernatorial candidate had earlier stated that such brainstorming was needed in order to together run a successful campaign and a non-acrimonious election, and thus, depict a stronger sense of unity in the party.
\nAs the meeting was brought to a close, all the party candidates unanimously expressed appreciation and fulfillment on the success of the meeting, and the issues discussed therein. The Lagos West APC Senatorial candidate, Hon. Solomon Adeola Olamilekan, described the session as “fantastic, and a right one in the right direction”. <\/p>\n
Hon. Jide Jimoh, the candidate for Lagos Mainland Federal Constituency, also called it a “welcomed one” where the party candidates had the chance to together plan meaningful strategies to ensure the party’s success at the polls.
