He said that the promise of the Secretary to the Federal Government (SGF) slot by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is not enough for the South West to lose the positions it is currently occupying
“I support the Buhari/Osinbajo ticket Westerner, because my people stand to gain more from it,” Fashola said.
He said that the re-election of Buhari would guarantee that power would come to the South West in 2023.
“The South West is presently occupying the position of the vice president. We have three sitting ministers and many different federal appointments from the present administration which we cannot afford to lose.,” he said.
