The residents of Alimosho area of Lagos State in their hundreds on Wednesday to joined Jimi Agbaje, the People’s Democratic Party governorship candidate in the state, on a road show as he took his campaign to the area.
Agbaje and his running mate, Haleemat Busari, led their campaign team through Alimosho Local Government Area in continuation of their tour of the state.
Agbaje, in his remarks, urged the people to disregard the supposed adoption of a common flag bearer by the Coalition of United Political Parties in the state.
He said it only existed as a figment of the imagination of its evil sponsors.
“My party, PDP, is a bona-fide entity in the CUPP and I can assure you that no such endorsement has taken place and it is not even on the cards. He said.
“It is a mixture of blackmail and mischief, the reports that PDP party joined others to adopt a common flagbearer for Saturday’s election.
“The umbrella opposition group, CUPP, purportedly adopted the Action Democratic Party candidate, Mr. Babatunde Gbadamosi, as the sole candidate it would back against Babajide Sanwoolu of the All Progressives Congress.
“Those pushing this false and evil narrative and those who think they can benefit from it are lily-livered and Lilliputian contestants who lack any sense of decency.
“Everyone should be wary of the antics of these political desperadoes.
“These are political featherweights, lowly rated in this contest, and they will do anything to play the role of spoilers.”
The PDP flag-bearer expressed confidence about winning on Saturday.
He said PDP was in this race to win and would do so fair and square.
Agbaje wondered why anyone would sink to the level of sowing outright falsehood in the name of politics.
He said: “I put a lot of premium on integrity, honesty and truth, and that has underscored the way we have run this campaign.
“Unfortunately, many politicians seem to believe that the end justifies the means and would do anything to push their selfish ambition, including sowing outright falsehood, disinformation and misinformation to the public.”
