The Social Democratic Party (SDP) in Lagos State has congratulated Babajide Sanwo-Olu on his victory in last Saturday’s governorship election in the state.
The SDP Chairman in the state, Femi Olaniyi, in a statement, yesterday, said that Sanwo-Olu’s victory showed his popularity.
Olaniyi, who urged the governor-elect to be magnanimous in victory, called for inclusive governance.
He said: “In the spirit of sportsmanship, we want to congratulate Sanwo-Olu on his deserved victory at the Saturday’s governorship election.
“Sanwo-Olu’s re-election provides him another opportunity to justify the hope reposed on him by the people.
“It is a time to reflect and chart a way to get dividends of democracy across to the masses. It is another opportunity to alleviate the suffering of the people.
“It is another time to put smiles on the faces of the people at the grassroots. We believe Sanwo-Olu will do more for the people of Lagos State.”
He said that the governor must be more inclusive in governance and bring the right and qualified people on board to deliver his campaign promises to the people.
Olaniyi, who noted that the election was not without flaws, urged INEC, security agencies and other stakeholders to work more to improve on the electoral process in the country.
