The governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Olajide Adediran a.k.a. Jandor has called on persons of Igbo extraction to come out in their numbers to vote for the party ahead of the gubernatorial elections slated for Saturday, March 11.

Jandor made the appeal on Wednesday, March 1 after Bola Tinubu was declared president-elect by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

"I want to speak to our brothers of Igbo extraction in Lagos. I am going to be your governor. That governor will consider you as a crucial part of the state. Take it from me no one will harass you."

"Come all out on Saturday and take a decision. Let me remind you, they did everything on Saturday to vandalize and destroy the elections but at the end of the day people will prevail and that is the same thing we are going to do."

"This election we are going to make a statement that whatever has happened at the center is inconsequential."

This is the first time in 24 years that a different political party has won the state.

Peter Obi of the Labour Party secured 582,454 votes to defeat his closest challenger, Bola Tinubu of the APC, who scored 572, 606 votes.
