The governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has submitted his nomination form to contest for a second term on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Sanwo-Olu submitted the form, purchased at N50 million, at the International Conference Centre in Abuja on Tuesday.
Speaking to journalists after dropping his form, the Governor said he was optimistic of winning his re-election because of his performance in office in the past three years.
He stated that his administration has repositioned Lagos from what it used to be under the previous administration.
“And we have grown the city from what it used to be three to four years ago before we took over. Now it receives the highest foreign direct investments because the environment is safe and secured,” he said.
Last month, the Governor’s Advisory Council, the highest decision-making body of APC in Lagos, adopted Sanwo-Olu as the candidate of the party, while Tinubu also ratified the decision of GAC.
