Honestly, I know deep down that this guy is a good guy...People don't hate him because he is sonwo olu, pple just hate him because of tinubu..

Pls Sanwo olu should try the healing process it's good for a healthy society.

Many people are bitter now not because they lost, but the manner by which they lost.

Personal I do not like some of the news that emanated from Lagos during this election, the governor elect can still bring all the ethnic groups that are represented
in Lagos together, and also talk to his supporters to magnanimous in victory.
