Democracy Day: Lagos PDP urges residents to be hopeful, resilient

Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos State, has asked residences to be more hopeful, resilient and believe that the best is on the way for the state.

The party in a statement signed by its publicity secretary, Akeem Amode, said there is no doubt that the state is yet to enjoy real dividends of democracy, which the late Chief M.K.O Abiola and the June 12, 1993 elections stood for.

It said, “For us in the Lagos State PDP, we believe that the residents of the state deserve more than they are experiencing under the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

“Lagos State is blessed with both natural and human resources, apart from the fact that it is the commercial never centre of the nation, and the state has little or nothing to show for it.

“This is a state that ought to set the pace for others in education, health and other infrastructure based on her huge income.

“By now, Lagos should have been the cynosure of all eyes and built to a city compared to notable cities of the world such as Dubai, Johannesburg and others.

“However, we promise that once the PDP takes over power in the state, the residents of the state would begin to enjoy their wealth as whatever is realized in the state would be used for the development of the metropolitan state.

“Once again, we wish the residents of Lagos State all the best at this period, while we urge them to look forward to better governance soon under the PDP.”
