She urged the women to get their permanent voter cards and on “that day, from beginning to the end,” and vote for APC candidates.

Governor Uzodimma noted APC is the party to beat in next year’s exercise, saying that the duo of Tinubu and Shettima will cruise to victory in 2022.

He said, “APC is one united national political party in Nigeria and we are all committed to APC, and we are all working for APC.

We believe that what is happening in Lagos should happen in Nigeria. We believe that those who initiated what is happening in Lagos should also initiate what would happen in Nigeria,” he told the women at the Government House.

“We believe that the good work the President has done for the past seven and half years has to be supported and continued. The only way this can happen is if our women will come out en masse; if our youths will come out en masse; if our politicians will come out en masse and support a winning team because you don’t change a winning team,” he said.
