“You know the President with honesty, integrity and dependability. We will continue with his incorruptible and being straightforward attributes, ” he said.

The APC candidate also promised to prudently manage the nation’s resources and increase the revenue – generation capacity as he did when he was Lagos governor.

“We will strengthen and promote peace and unity in the state and confront violence and man inhumanity to fellow man as that’s the only way growth and development can be achieved,” he said.
