run in the Lagos 2015 governorship elections.
Honourable
Abike Dabiri-Erewa
is currently under pressure to run in the Lagos 2015 governorship elections, City
People reports.
The
Federal House of Representatives member was said to have been hosted by a group
of young Nigerians, including award-winning journalists, Tolu Ogunlesi and Chude Jideonwo, at a
programme titled “The
Future Lagos”.
While
there, Mrs. Dabiri-Erewa was reportedly asked if she would contest for
governorship of the state, to which she responded “Would you like me to
contest?”
When
the participants answered in the affirmative, she said:
“My goal at all times is to make life easier for the
common man, woman and child. I don’t doubt my capacity and capability if my
party considers me worthy of the position”.
The
legislator was also recently asked by City People if she would run for office
and she is said to have stated that she is currently under intense pressure to
run for the governorship of the state.
Abike
Dabiri-Erewa was elected
in 2003 as a representative of the Ikorodu
Federal Constituency. The question now is, will she run for
Governor of Lagos?
