Former Governor of Lagos state, Babatunde Fashola has said that the people of the country will vote for the All Progressive Congress (APC) in the forthcoming general elections in the country.
According to Fashola the APC’s internally generated polls have shown that the APC clearly leads other parties in the polls.
He said that the polls were conducted based on realities and not phone or online.
Fashola berated polls conducted by some bodies in the county claiming the polls were self-serving and lack empirical facts and figures.
Fashola said that the polls were conducted based on people who have their Permanent Voters Card (PVC) and those who have gotten their PVCs in recent times.
The Lagos-born politician made these comments while featuring on a political program one on one with Babatunde Fashola on Channels TV and monitored by the TheNewsGuru (TNG)
Asked whether the APC has delivered their political promises and democratic dividends, Fashola said the government has tried its best and delivered in some areas while work is still on going in other areas.
On the Issue of the old naira notes, Fashola said that the intention behind the policy is good but it’s not working at the moment. He lamented that he’s also directly affected because he doesn’t have cash too.
Asked if the APC presidential candidate Bola Ahmed Tinubu will deliver democratic tenets to the people of the country, he said that he (Tinubu) has delivered as the Lagos state governor and the senate leader in the past.
When asked to choose someone else apart from the candidacy of Tinubu, the senior lawyer said he would still choose Tinubu because he’s a man who has proven doubters wrong on many issues.
