The campaign has been decentralized across Lagos’ three Senatorial districts – East, Central, and West – with the West district divided into two due to its size.
The flag-off ceremony will be attended by party leaders, elected and appointed officials from the three tiers of government. To ensure effective mobilization, the party instructed local government leaders to establish Local Organizing Committees, taking the campaign to all areas of the state.
It will be recalled that the Chairmanship, Vice Chairmanship and Councilorship Candidates of the party in the 20 Local Governments Councils , the 37 Local Council Development Areas and the 377 wards had earlier emerged during its primaries.
The APC campaign will focus on the various unprecedented landmark achievements of the out-going governments in the councils, the numerous timely social interventions and the promise to do more in tandem with the party’s progressive philosophy.
We wish to seize this opportunity to urge all voters to endeavor to perform their civic responsibility on the day of the elections to further grow our nascent democracy.
The campaign will end a day before the elections in accordance with the extant laws.
