According to the PUNCH newspaper, Lagos state's governor-elect, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode has asked the PDP candidate, Mr. Jimi Agbaje to join him in his administrative endeavor to build the state.
Ambode, who defeated Jimi Agbaje at the gubernatorial poll, said: “To my main opponent, Mr. Jimi Agbaje of the PDP, I thank you for a keen contest and invite you, alongside other governorship candidates, to join hands with me in moving Lagos forward."
He also had a message for Lagosians: “I am humbled that you have placed your trust and faith in me.
“The love of this state and our common belief in what we can accomplish, our belief in what this state already is, and in what it is destined to become binds us together in a social and moral contract of high purpose.
“I shall honour that contract with every fiber of my being.
“This day I pledge to you that I shall devote myself to bringing even greater prosperity, growth and development to every inch of this state.
“I also pledge that I shall build on legacy and progress of my predecessors,” Ambode said.
The governor-elect promised to bring the best of Lagos into his government saying that the people would be proud and glad for choosing him as their governor.
“The people of Lagos have demonstrated that Lagos is not about ethnicity or religion but about a common desire to enthrone good governance.
“Lagos under my watch will not discriminate. It has not in the past, and will not in the present; not even in the future, there will be no political victimisation.
“By affirming your faith in the APC and in me, you have, for the first time in 16 years, married progressive governance at the national level with progressive government at the state level,” he said.
