Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu emerged as the All Progressives Congress (APC) gubernatorial candidate in 2018 and later as Governor in 2019. No sooner had he settled to work as Lagos State Governor than COVID-19 and the #endSARS protests started in 2020.

These challenges regardless, Governor Sanwo-Olu implemented several initiatives aimed at improving the living conditions of the people of Lagos State, such as the "Lagos State Employment Trust Fund" and the "Lagos State Health Insurance Scheme." He has also worked on improving infrastructure in the state, including the construction of new roads and bridges.

Sanwo-Olu’s administration saw to the establishment of export free trade zone and SME Hubs: The Sanwo-Olu administration the extablishment of the SEZ, including the Alaro City, another free zone, set on 1,000ha carved out of the bush. It too has an anchor client up and running, Ariel Foods. Around 40 companies now have purchased land here, with a handful already building their factories.

Against all odds, his administration saw the completion of the Lekki port. This is the largest seaport of Nigeria and one of the biggest in West Africa. Lekki port is to be expanded to have a capacity of handling around 6 million TEUs of containers and a significant volume of liquid and dry bulk uncontainerized cargoes. The port is to be equipped with ships able to transport over 14,500 containers.

The Sanwo-Olu administration established the state’s disaster Management Agency and strengthened the existing State Emergency Medical Services for risk mitigation. The body has successfully intervened in numerous cases and prevented so many major disasters in the state.

Waste management also received considerable attention from the Sanwo-Olu administration. The administration saw LAWMA commence construction of Transfer Loading Station (TLS) with organised Public Private Partnership (PPP).  The agency now has over six standard functional TLS in operation across Lagos. LAWMA made remarkable achievements Obalende which some people used to refer to as home of refuse.

In the health sector, Sanwo-Olu supported 15 families of Persons Living With Cerebral Palsy and Down Syndrome with financial assistance of N1million to N2.5million each. Activated one Oxygen Plant at Yaba for COVID-19. Established 10 Tri and Oxygen Centres.

Truth be told. Sanwo-Olu is arguably the best governor in the class 2019-2023.

But despite his sterling performance, there are underlying issues that are very disturbing.

First and foremost, he is a beneficiary of a very corrupt and malevolent system. A system that perpetuates thuggery, violence, ethnic chauvinism, ballot box snatching, voter suppression and everything that epitomises what is wrong with Nigerian democracy today.

Second, he is undeniably a puppet! Just look at the way he was following the current President elect around during the campaign period! It was too shameful. At a certain point, I wondered who was now in charge of running the affairs of the state during the Presidential campaign.

Thirdly, he has continued a culture that ensures there is no transparency in the way Lagos is governed.

It's was absolutely cringe worthy watching him lead the prayer session after his principal was declared winner of a very flawed election. I decided to vote against him when I saw this on TV.

Sanwo-Olu, you are not bad, but you must go!

NO!
As Tief-nubu's Apha-Beta tax collector?

Too be honest, he is the most qualified but that doesn't mean he deserves 2nd term.. although I am BAT man

If he doesn't deserve second tenure, he's isn't qualified

He is still the best, tested and trusted candidate for Lagos among the others..

I want to see the blue and red rail lines completed with capacity to carry over 500k passangers in one trip.. Manchester to London city right here in Lagos, Nigeria.

I want to see smart cities and new airports and seaports built in Lagos.

I want to see the big boats operational to transport passangers from mainland to the Island.

I want to see the much anticipated 4th mainland bridge to eliminate traffic gridlock in all parts of Lagos. I am tired of spending over 4 hours on 3rd mainland bridge in the evenings to move from Victoria Island to Ikeja.

I want to see Badagry axis come to life with arts, culture and theatre monuments, recreational centres and tourists destinations..

I appreciate Governor Sanwo Olu and the Health commissioner in Lagos for taking proactive steps to secure Nigerians in other parts of the country during the Covid-19 outbreak. It's a thing of joy to have survived that pandemic that claimed many lives across the globe.

God bless you Governor Sanwo Olu and I wish you success in the coming March 18 election.
Eko ile.. ilu Eko ya.. we go dey Lagos for that election.

Nope Sanwo Olu the clueless end sars protesters killer deserve not to be re-elected. He’s a wicked governor ever in Lagos State

Ambode 100% deversed a second term from the people, but what happened??

You see, Most people want the status quo to change because of Tinubu's perceived Hegemony hold.
