Strong indications have emerged that the leadership of All
Progressives Congress in Lagos have acquiesced to the request of
Christians in the state for a Christian governor in 2015. The candidate
of choice is Ayo Gbeleyi, the present Commissioner of Finance in the
administration of quintessential Governor Babatunde Fashola.
The decision to present a Christian candidate emerged after due
consultations with eminent Christian leaders and clerics who have
promised to mobilise other faithfuls to vote enmasse for the party if a
Christian emerges as gubernatorial candidate in the state. The
leadership of the APC, after a thorough search, have
found a willing and reliable Christian candidate in Ayo Gbeleyi, a
thoroughbred professional known for his exceptional brilliance and
intelligence.
Since the searchlight has beamed on Gbeleyi, Christian leaders are
delighted that Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has not only heeded to their
demands but responded accordingly.
