Lagos ADC Guber Candidate Names Running Mate

Governorship candidate of the Action Democratic Congress (ADC) in Lagos, Funsho Doherty has picked Rosemary Giwa-Amu, a human rights activist, as his running mate in the 2023 election.

Speaking at the unveiling ceremony on Friday, Doherty said the mission of the party is to create a new paradigm of governance in the state.

“Lagos can be more than this. Is it that Lagos does not have money or industries or is it not collecting taxes? Is Lagos the poorest state in Nigeria?” he said.

“The answer to all of these questions is that Lagos has the industries. The budget for this year is N1.7 trillion, so why is it so?

“The conclusion is that those that were put in charge of these resources on behalf of the people have betrayed that trust.

“Enough is enough, we will enter this race as a party and as a candidate with the idea that we will bring a new paradigm of leadership. That’s the mission and that’s what you will continue to hear from us”, he added.
