Following what was widely termed as below average on the performance of the Lagos state All Progressives Congress (APC) in the presidential and national assembly election, the party has taken a rare direction as the campaign team for the party’s governorship candidate in the state, Babajide Olushola Sanwo-Olu Campaign Organization (BOSCO) adopted the image of former Governor Babatunde Raji Fashola to boost its campaigns.

newsheadline247 understands the Sanwoolu campaign team may have lost its confidence following the performance of the party in the presidential and national assembly elections held last Saturday where opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) coasted to victory in APC strongholds.

Anxiety mounts in the party after Sanwoolu who defeated Governor Akinwunmi Ambode in the gubernatorial primary of the party by over 920,000 against all odds lost his polling unit to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the presidential election.

Also, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and Fashola lost their respective strongholds to the opposition in the election.

The poetic justice was that APC managed to poll 580,000 which is just 9 percent of the 6,500,000 registered voters in Lagos: many political analysts have been asking where are the 3,000,000 touted party members in Lagos State? Where are the 920,000 party members who voted Sanwoolu in the party’s primary?

The unexpected low votes garnered by the party in the presidential election have kept the governorship candidate’s campaign team on its toes.

It was gathered that the National Leader of the party, Ashiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, in a stakeholder meeting held on Wednesday, gave stern warning to party chieftains in the state, asking them to deliver their respective polling areas in the March 9 governorship and state assembly elections or get stripped of their positions in the party

A source informed that the disturbed party chieftains, however, responded by “replacing Tinubu’s image with pictures of Fashola whom they believed is well loved by Lagosians to sell Sanwo-Olu candidacy.”

But Abgaje also lost his polling unit to Buhari, while Fashola also lost Surulere LGA to Atiku.

Na so una hype Atiku sotay he lost his polling unit to Buhari, which is the worst defeat of all. It is now clear that SanwoOlu will win this one too. No election is ever 'free and fair' to you losers unless na una win. Lol

Imagine the helplessness of Sanwo-Olu cum the APC.Using an over-hyped wonderman but a failure misfit SAN minister of power as image booster? So what happens to the "When Tinubu calls Sanwo-Olu answers." slogan

Yes, Sanwo-olu couldn't win his PU for Buhari but I'm very sure that when it comes to the governorship election, he'll win massively.

I know of a whole lot of people who don't like Buhari including Igbos but will go all out to vote for Sanwo-olu.

The man has a likeable character. So don't use the results of the Presidential elections to judge Sanwo's fate.

mekaboy:
Meaning Ambode is a failure.

Ambode is not sellable. The grassroots don't like the man.

But he isn't a complete failure.

I love some of his policies like CodeLagos and LSETF.

Don't mislead the public sir. It is actually When Lagos calls, Sanwo-olu answers

And, to you BRF is an over-hyped wonderman, but Lagosians love him like that He's still the best political administrator in the state and I hope Sanwo-olu surpasses BRF's 8 years achievements in 4 years.
