Lagos 2019: Angry Epe residents chased out Sanyo-Olu,Obanikoro





Contrary to reports, that the Lagos State All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu, was received in Epe last Friday, amid rousing welcome by a crowd of  residents and political leaders in the Lagos East axis, our reporter can authoritatively report  that Babajide Sanwo-Olu and his entourage were actually chased out of the town, by angry residents, a situation which the Lagos APC, desperately ensured was given a media blackout aftermath.

Recall that Mr. Sanwo-Olu was scheduled to meet with monarchs in the Epe Division, who were to receive the APC candidate’s entourage at the palace of Oloja of Epe land.

Upon the arrival of the APC team at the Palace of the Epe Monarch,  Angry residents of the town, in their numbers mobilised and  barricaded the Palace, where they descended on members of the Sanwo-Olu campaign train, including a former Minister of State for Defense, Musiliu Obanikoro and chased them away from the Palace.
                                           
The angry protesters demanded that the APC candidate and His team, depart Epe immediately, as all efforts by the Traditional ruler and Chiefs present, to persuade the protesters fell on deaf ears.

The irate protesters, wielding sticks and stones later descended on vehicles and some supporters who have followed Babajide Sanwo-Olu, to the Palace, thereby bringing the visit by the APC gubernatorial candidate, to a close, while the candidate and his entourage, scampered for safety under heavy security cover, out of the town.

    This is nice, I still believe in the people. The monarch and party chiefs just lost their respect. The traded people's welfare for their own personal gain. Shame on all of them. God bless Ambode wherever he is

    Thus report is erroneous and a lie from the pit of hell. Your journalists and reporters don't have a good heart. They are instigating a breech of public peace

OPINION: Politicising Tragedy

 The sad occurrence of the collapse of a 21 storey building in Lagos was a monumental disaster. Certainly the loss of more than 20 lives up to-date is a painful human tragedy. All attention must be focussed on what happened, why it happened and how can future occurrences be prevented all together!. Governor Babajide Sanwoolu, as usual of him, immediately rose to the occasion. Cut short his schedule official engagement in Rome and went to the venue straight from the airport. Even before his arrival the General Manager in charge was immediately sent on compulsory leave. Within 24hrs the governor has visited the site and the surviving victims about twice and a technical enquiry committee of capable and highly credible professionals has been put in place to unravel whatever happened and to advice government appropriately on issues including that of culpability, negligence and possible acts of criminality. It is widely reported that the number of floors constructed was far in exces...
