The Lagos State chapter of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, on Saturday said it was sure to defeat the All Progressives Congress, APC, to capture the state in the 2019 elections.
The state Organising Secretary of the party, Johnson Agbaje, spoke in Epe during the campaign flag-off of Princess Abiodun Oyefusi, the Lagos East Senatorial candidate of the party.
He said the party had been repositioned for greatness and the confidence of residents in the party was growing by the day.
Agbaje said that residents were tired of what he called the failures of the APC administration in the state.
“The PDP will win in 2019. We are very confident. The people are tired of the APC and their failed promises and they want us to give them hope.
“We are the party of the people for the people. We are the party to deliver Lagos and give it to the people. With the growing confidence in the PDP, we will surely win in 2019,” he said.
Agbaje said all the candidates of the PDP for the general elections in the state were people of integrity with the capacity to deliver.
He described Oyewusi as a candidate with a very rich pedigree, saying the party trusted in her capacity to give better representation to the Lagos East in the Senate.
“We have given the Lagos East a woman with great capacity. A woman who will bring the needed development to the people of this area.
“We have given you a woman with proven track records. We need you to support her and vote for her for better representation,” he said.
