The rally was also to show support for the re-election of the Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, his running mate, Dr. Obafemi Hamzat, and all the APC candidates in the state.
The APC supporters, who defied the early downpour, converged at the entrance of Teslim Balogun Stadium in Surulere as early as 7.00 a.m.
The walk ended at Bolade Oshodi with fanfare at noon.
Addressing the supporters, Alhaji Musiliu Akinsanya, the former Chairman of the proscribed National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW), said the walk became imperative to show the massive support for Tinubu’s presidential ambition.
Akinsanya said the former Lagos state governor who laid the foundation for the progressive development of the state has the character, capacity, and competence to provide leadership that everyone would be proud of in the country.
According to him, if given the opportunity, Tinubu has the experience and ability to replicate all the visible developments in Lagos state at the Federal level.
Also speaking, Mr. Waheed Seriki, the leader of the APC support group in the rally, said: “Asiwaju Tinubu is prepared to change the narrative of the challenges facing the nation.
“Some areas that will enjoy priority of the incoming Tinubu’s administration include insecurity, power generation and employment creation.”
Further reports state that several political support groups of different presidential candidates have been staging solidarity walks to support their candidates.
Following the ban lifted by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on campaigning in public by political parties officially on September 28.
The electoral umpire fixed February 25, 2023, for national elections (Presidential and National Assembly) and March 11 for state elections (Governorship and State Assembly).
