The campaign organisation of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) candidate for Eti-Osa Constituency II in the Lagos State House of Assembly election, Ayodele Adio, has appointed veteran political mobiliser, Balogun Sulaiman Olajide, as its Director-General ahead of the forthcoming poll.
The
appointment, announced on Monday, is seen as part of efforts by the opposition
to strengthen its campaign structure and challenge the dominance of the ruling
party in the constituency.
Speaking
after his inauguration, Sulaiman thanked the candidate and members of the
campaign team for the confidence placed in him, pledging to deploy his
political experience and grassroots network toward securing victory at the
election.
He
said the campaign was committed to making history in the constituency by
delivering it to the opposition for the first time since the country returned
to democratic governance in 1999.
According
to him, the campaign would focus on issues affecting residents, including youth
empowerment, infrastructural development, and improved representation.
“We
are determined to make history in Eti-Osa Constituency II. This is a movement
driven by the people, and by the grace of God and the support of residents, we
will deliver this constituency to the opposition for the first time since
1999.”
Adio
described the appointment as a strategic decision aimed at boosting the
campaign’s organisational strength and grassroots mobilisation across Eti-Osa
Constituency II.
The
ADC candidate expressed confidence in Sulaiman’s leadership ability and
understanding of the political landscape in the constituency, while urging
party supporters and volunteers to cooperate fully with the new
Director-General.
“I
have absolute confidence in the ability of Balogun Sulaiman Olajide to lead
this campaign effectively. He is experienced, committed, and understands the
political terrain of Eti-Osa. I urge all our supporters, party faithful,
and volunteers to give him the maximum cooperation and support needed to
achieve our collective goal.”
Sulaiman
is regarded as an influential figure within political circles in Eti-Osa and
Lagos State, having previously held several positions in the Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP), including Ward Secretary, Local Government Secretary, and Party
Leader. His supporters believe his experience in grassroots mobilisation could
prove significant for the campaign.
