The campaign of Lagos State PDP gubernatorial candidate, Mr. Jimi Agbaje, for the February 2015 elections received a major boost over the weekend with the inauguration of the Jimi Agbaje Independent Campaign group (JAICG).
JAICG’s Director of Communication, Mrs. Victoria Falowo, said the group’s membership cuts across key players in the organised private sector, youths and women organisations, with no particular affiliation to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
“The major drive of the group is to independently work with like minds in all sectors of the state by employing a very vigorous person-to-person and door mouth-to-door mouth campaign to see that their prized asset in the person of Mr. Jimi Agbaje, a thoroughbred Lagosian and professional par excellence, emerge victorious in the February elections,” Mrs. Falowo said in a statement, a copy of which was made available to News Express.
She disclosed that “already as part of ways in the achievement of its goals, the group has gone ahead to set up a website and social media platform on Facebook and Twitter, to further enhance interaction, as well as engage Lagosians and the voting public on the need to queue behind the PDP candidate, Jimi Agbaje, by emphasising his strong points and value which amongst so many others are a strong pedigree, a quintessential professional, an avowed listener and more importantly a good team player.”
