By Chairman Lagos All Progressives Congress,APC , Pastor Cornelius Ojelabi
My dear good people of Lagos State, we thank God for his infinite mercies and protection over us in year 2023 that has just ended.
We thank Him also for the peaceful conduct of the general elections during which we unanimously re-elected our ever-performing governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu, under the aegis of our great party ,the APC and thus opted for another four years of progressive governance in Lagos.
On behalf of our great party, I also thank you for supporting and electing our leader and father of the nation, Aṣiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as President and Commander-In-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Indeed, it’s a great joy for me to be the chairman that produced the first truly progressive president for the country.
Year 2023 also gave us the opportunity to elect other candidates to contribute to the rescuing of our country from the failure path that greedy leaders of the past plunged it.
Through your votes at the 2023 elections, you gave testimonies and practically demonstrated your love, belief and support for our progressive ideology and gave our party the nod to spread the magic with which we have made Lagos State a true Center of Excellence to the entire nation.
2023 has gone into history and we give gratitude to God for making us witness the beginning of Year 2024 in God health of mind and body. May He lead us through this new year with His divine favour and grace. Amen.
My dear Lagosians, let’s agree to make this year a better one than 2023. Let’s put partisan politics that dotted 2023 behind us and forge ahead to continue to make our state the Centre of Excellence and by extension make Nigeria an excellent nation by engaging in productive activities and actions that will reflect the phrase above.
Our amiable Governor Sanwo-Olu and his team are ready to make the new year a glorious one for us through superlative performance. It is only left for you and I to do everything to cooperate with them in making life better for us.
As the Chairman of our party in the State, I am assuring you that the government will continue to serve you better in 2024 and beyond. The new year will be that of progressive hope and aspirations for all and sundry in the state and the nation following the painstaking implementation of the THEMES Plus agenda of our state government and the RENEWED HOPE agenda of the federal government.
Our party will not disappoint you but will improve on its performance index by providing more dividends of democracy in all sectors of the economy. I implore you to continue to be law abiding citizens and embrace peaceful coexistence . It is under an atmosphere of peace that love, justice and development can be achieved.
The government needs your cooperation and collaborations to achieve the many programmes it has on stock for the citizenry.
May year 2024 usher in for us abundant blessings of God, better economic realities, and the other good things of life (Amen)
