A Kosofe-based TV journalist (name withheld) has said that if the 8 All Progressives Congress posters are counted, it will be hardly before the People’s Democratic Party poster could be counted in Lagos.

The journalist, who spoke through a voice note to the Kosofe Post under the condition of anonymity, said the documentary he conducted in part of the state revealed itself on Monday.
He said, “I did a documentary. I went to some parts of Lagos State, such as the Third Mainland Bridge, Isale Eko, Ketu, Ikeja, and Surelere, with an accompanying vehicle. If you count eight APC posters, hardly before could you count one PDP poster.
“For both PDP presidential and governorship candidates, there was nothing. Even though they are destroying their billboards, posters, and banners, social media is there for you to campaign on.
“If they want to campaign through TVC, they may say Tinubu owns it; if they say they want to use LTV, they may say the Lagos State Government owns it. NTA may not want to carry because of the APC government, but there are other TV stations and avenues you guys can use. They are just silent and dreaming to be governors. Is that how it is being done?
“Other political parties are just deceiving themselves. Maybe they’ll say someone is contesting as a NNPP governorship candidate and waiting to be called to become commissioner of finance. If he’s an engineer, they will give him a commissioner of works; this is what some of the contestants are targeting.
“While some of them are just waiting to be called by Ashiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and be given hundreds of millions to back out of the race and join the party, that’s what they are doing, and they aren’t going anywhere. But the main opposition party, particularly the PDP, should look at how they are behaving at the national level, he noted.
