Ahead of the 2023 presidential elections, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State Governor, has called on Nigerians to ignore candidates who only dishes our unverifiable statistics.

Sanwo-Olu told them to consider flagbearers with clear-cut plans and not people quoting figures.

Represented by his deputy, Obafemi Hamzat, Sanwo-Olu said APC candidate Bola Tinubu has the ability to sustain the nation’s economy.

”We should look at who has access to the sources for businesses”, NAN quoted him saying.

”Nigerians should look at who has the ability to protect the integrity of our country by sustaining the military, training them well.”

The governor cautioned against using religion to cause distractions ahead of the 2023 general elections.

“If we can put our lives in the hands of doctors without asking for their religion before surgery, why then are doing otherwise?”
