As the Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu was sworn-in today for a second term in office, a group has urged all residents to co-operate with the state to reap dividends of democracy.
The group, under the auspices of The Mandate Movement, asked Lagosians to support Sanwo-Olu, regardless of their tribe, religion, political affiliation and others
Lagos became more divided along ethnic, political and religious lines, especially considering the ethnic and political disagreements that characterised the elections.
But, the Chairman of The Mandate Movement, Abdullahi Enilolobo, charged the people to put behind their differences and rally round Sanwo-Olu for the sake of development.

“We call on all Lagosians, irrespective of political affiliation, religion, tribe, norms, and values, to join hands with the Sanwo-Olu administration for a more prosperous Lagos State.
