Do your campaign in peace but don't force market men and women to close shop and be at Tinubu campaign like you guys did in the previous Campaign in Lagos

It's not a must to vote Tinubu in Lagos , Lagos doesn't belong to Tinubu. Lagos was already in existence before Tinubu and Lagos will continue to exist after Tinubu might have joined his maker

But when Labour Party campaigned in Lagos, APC Urchins said all sorts of nonsense that how can he make vehicular movement difficult for users because of his campaign... But here you won't find any of them saying anything about a whole road being closed and market men/women forced to close their shops for Tinubu's campaign
