Youths in Alimosho Local Government Area have accused the All
Progressives Congress (APC)-led government in Lagos State of neglecting
the people of the council area in the provision of infrastructure
facilities that can make life meaningful to the residents.
Making the accusation at Abesan Estate in Alimosho, the youths of the
area alleged that the state government and APC were only interested in
securing votes of residents during elections, but always failing to
deliver on election promises thereafter.
The spokesman of the youths, Abu Ojeikhere, said at a forum where Mr.
Akintoye Branco-Rhodes, a Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship
aspirant in the state was adopted by the youths as their choice for the
governorship race.
“In the last 15 years under APC-led government, Alimosho Local
Government Area, which is the biggest in the country, has been abandoned
by APC and Lagos State Government. Alimosho is not only the biggest
local government area in the state, but also has the largest number of
voters, and the residents have always voted for APC. But what have we
got in return from APC? Absolutely nothing, and this is why we want to
appeal to our people in Alimosho to vote wisely during the 2015 general
elections.”
Urging politicians to stop playing politics of deceit, Ojeikhere
said: “What we are saying is there for everybody to see. People who have
not been to Alimosho should take a trip down here and see for
themselves. Our road network is very bad, while health facilities are
grossly inadequate to cope with the large population and most
infrastructure facilities here are in a state of decay.”
Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Branco-Rhodes promised to transform
Lagos State if he clinched PDP ticket as the party’s flag bearer.
