Dear Aspirants, Stakeholders, Delegates, and Members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Lagos State,
As we commence our party primaries tomorrow, I sincerely appreciate every member for your unwavering loyalty and steadfast commitment to the ideals and continued progress of our great party.
The APC remains a strong symbol of democratic values, unity, and national development. I therefore urge all aspirants across Lagos State to approach the primaries with maturity, discipline, and utmost respect for the party’s constitution and electoral guidelines.
The primary election is a democratic process established to select credible candidates who will proudly fly the flag of our party in the forthcoming general elections. We must avoid actions, utterances, or conduct capable of creating division, and instead conduct ourselves peacefully, respectfully, and with a spirit of solidarity.
I call on all aspirants and their supporters to embrace peace, fairness, and sportsmanship before, during, and after the primaries. The victory of one aspirant should be seen as the collective victory of the APC family in Lagos State.
Let us remain focused on our shared vision of strengthening our party and delivering effective leadership and good governance to the people.
Together, united in purpose and commitment, we shall continue to move our great party forward and secure success in the elections ahead.
