LagosEast2020: If I am Deji Doherty, these would be my focus. – Segun Aeroland

It is important for me to speak on the forthcoming Lagos East Senatorial district election, slated for October 31st this year.

As we all know, we have a very serious work, if we must combat the ruling APC bumper to bumper, to achieve a resounding victory, just as we did over the weekend in Edo. I can tell you, from my experience, we can win Lagos East for PDP, with wide margin, yes, It is possible.

However, we can’t win with just mere words of mouth, or wishful thinking, or through series of media interviews. We must go about knocking door to door campaigning, just as the APC are doing, from the report I am getting.

If you move around Lagos East, it would be shocking to note that, only Tokunbo Aburi’s you’ll see everywhere. As much as we now have a candidate in the person of our brother BOG, only him cannot carry the financial burden associated with winning this election.

This is where, it is expected that, the State Chairman, Mr. Deji Doherty, will use his position to rally round all critical stakeholders in Lagos PDP, for fund raising. By now, we should have a standard Campaign Team, seperate from BOG’s team, so that both can be working hard in hand.

If by now, we don’t have committed and loyal members, who can adequately serve as our canvassers and polling agents. Then, I doubt our readiness for the election.

Mr. Chairman, should by now call a meeting of all our elected Reps members, and see how we can as a team queue behind BOG physically, financially and politically, for the purpose of the election.

Instead of Mr. Chairman junketting around, by teaming with those fighting Engr. Seyi Makinde, the only governor in South West, why not devote such energy in repositioning Lagos PDP, for the purpose of victory, so that he can have a record of having an elected Senator during his time as the State Chairman.

Mr. Chairman, if PDP wins and get massive good support from members of the party and general populace, it will be to your credit. So, start working now, and reach out.
