The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has vowed to capture Lagos in the 2019 governorship election.
Taofeek Gani, PDP publicity secretary in the state, said this in an interview with NAN.
“We will shock the All Progressives Congress (APC) by winning the governorship election in Lagos in 2019,’’ Gani said.
According to him, 2019 would be the beginning of the end of the APC government in the state.
Gani said the party had mapped out strategies to unseat the ruling party, adding “with the new spirit in PDP in Lagos, we are sure of winning in 2019″.
He described the performance of Akinwunmi Ambode, the governor, as “dismal’’, claiming that “Lagosians are eagerly waiting for the PDP to take over and deliver purposeful leadership’’.
“We will shock the APC in 2019, take my words, we already have lots of novel ideas to wrestle them from power,” he said.
“For now, we will keep our strategies sealed, when the game starts, we will unleash them.
According to him, the party has successfully resolved its internal crisis and is working assiduously to ensure a successful primary in the state.
Gani described recent media report on the defection of 1500 PDP members to the APC in the state as mere propaganda.
“It is laughable to hear that 1500 PDP members decamped to APC in Oshodi, this is outrageous propaganda,” he said.
“I am from Oshodi-Isolo, the area remains the strongest nest of PDP, we won all elective offices in the 2015 general elections, in spite the presence of the APC state chairman in the area.”
