The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Lagos has called on residents of the state not to be deceived by the grassroots campaign being carried out by the Vice Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo.
This warning is coming two weeks after Osinbajo took to a BRT bus and different Lagos markets to campaign ahead of the general elections.
The ruling party disclosed via a statement by its Publicity Secretary, Taofik Gani, that as a Commissioner for Justice in the state for over six years, Osinbajo never boarded public transport.
Gani further maintained that Osinbajo would forget the masses if his party eventually succeeds in the oncoming general elections.
The party said, “The Lagos PDP rebukes the Vice-presidential candidate of the APC, Yemi Osinbajo, for what it termed sudden change of lifestyle in order to deceive the electorate to support his party.
“Osinbajo belongs to the bourgeoisie and elitist family. He is not known to be a grass-roots person. He never participated nor supported any protest for the masses.
“Now, suddenly he goes into BRT buses to pretend to be a common man. This is, indeed, an attempt to score cheap political points. Lagosians definitely know their oppressors. He has started a fake lifestyle.”
