The Citizens know what it is they will be missing if they don’t let us Continue – Sanwo-Olu

The Governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has said Lagosians know what they will miss if he is denied a second term.

Sanwo-Olu stated this during his appearance on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily today.

However, the governor did not specifically mention he is seeking re-election in 2023, he said he would ask questions consult stakeholders on what they want and the way forward.

He, however, noted thus: “I think we are doing a very good job,” the governor rated his administration during his appearance on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily. “If I dare say so, I think that the citizens know what it is they will be missing if they don’t let us continue to wrap up all the things we are doing.”

“As we speak, we have done about two-thirds of our time – about 65.7 percent, because we count it every day. The field is not open yet; the race has not been declared open yet. But for me, it is about ensuring that these four years that I have promised my citizens, I put every bit of my sweat into it.

“I will ask, I will consult; citizens, how do you see it? …. that’s how you get it down. Keep your focus on it, try and finish very strong. You know when it is time for us to do all the politicking, we will do it.”

The Governor further stressed his administration’s efforts in addressing the gridlock on Lagos roads.

He said the two new sets of 10 cars Talgo 330kmph train his administration has purchased for its redline rail project would be on track by the fourth quarter of the year.

The governor noted that although the terminal stations will commence next year, it is putting all in place in ensuring that it is ready by the set target. 

Sanwo-Olu associated the possible delay to proper testing of the trains and training of workers to ensure the safety of passengers.
