The All Progressives Congress (APC), leaders in Ojokoro Local Government Area (LCDA) have released documents evidencing their resolution on the consensus candidacy of Sanusi Mobolaji for the position of chairman in the July 12, 2025 council elections in Lagos State.
The move was to validate the adoption of Sanusi as the consensus candidate.
The party’s apex council published the names of the authentic leaders that signed for Sanusi.
The names were listed in a letter sent to the state chairman of the party, Pastor Cornelius Ojelabi, on Saturday.
The group’s letter was to lend credence to a similar letter written on Friday where it declared Sanusi, a former Managing Director of Lagos State Signage and Advertising Agency (LASAA) as the party’s consensus candidate in the council area.
The leaders had also urged the party chairman to disregard a fictitious list written by House of Representatives members, Hon. Benjamin Olabinjo and Hon. James Faleke.
The latest letter entitled “Re: Clarifications and submission of authentic list signed by a majority of approved Ojokoro apex leaders for Mobolaji Sanusi as chairmanship consensus candidate,” read: “Consequent upon our letter of yesterday (Friday, May 2, 2025) on above subject matter, kindly find attached the original list of authentic leaders that voluntarily signed for the adoption of Mr Mobolaji Sanusi as CONSENSUS Candidate of our dear APC party in the upcoming local government elections.
