Jimi Agbaje London Campaign (PHOTOS)

Lagos State Governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Mr Jimi Agbaje has taken his campaign to the city of London, United Kingdom.

A group, Friends of Jimi Agbaje Worldwide in conjunction with the UK chapter of the PDP organised an interactive session for the pharmacist-turned-politician in the city which attracted the creme de la creme of the Nigerian community in Britain coupled with the presence of guests from all over Europe, America and Nigeria.



According to Nigeriannewsroom.blogspot.com, the event which was tagged ‘An Evening With Jimi Agbaje’ was attended by the former National Chairman of the PDP, Alhaji Bamanga Tukur; the Chairman of PDP UK, Otunba Abayomi Fakorede and media entrepreneur Mr. Alistair Soyode.

Speaking at the event, Agbaje, has said his ‘masterplan’ for Lagos State will be anchored on security, health and education.

 He went on to condemn the Babatunde Fashola administration who he alleged distributed safety crash helmets to commercial motorcyclists before the 2011 elections only to collect them back after winning the elections.

“The commercial motorcyclists popularly called Okada riders were all given the safety crash helmets before the 2011 election by the ruling party, but after the election victory, the government not only withdraw their crash helmets but seize all their motorcycles and destroy them. Many of them are now jobless and in deep hardship because their main means of livelihood now forcefully taken away from them”, Agbaje said.

“Lagosians must determine the Lagos of their dream as they cast their votes for their next Executive Governor. If they really want ‘Change’ and continuity of the present system, then it is up to them.”  He concluded.

It will be recalled that Fashola recently described Agbaje as inexperienced in governance matters.
