Jimi Agbaje, the Governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos State, has denied stepping down for another candidate as widely being speculated. He made this known in a statement released yesterday, March 6 by his Director of Media and Publicity, Felix Oboagwina that he is still very much in the race. The statement reads:
“I have not stepped down. And I will not step down for anybody," “Neither my party nor I have any arrangement with anybody to drop out of the race. And at this point in time, no Jupiter can even make such a suggestion to me. It is taboo. It is indecent. It will not happen. Such has not even crossed my mind.
“To step down for whom? Stepping down will be an unfortunate betrayal of the hopes and dreams of millions of Lagosians who consider me as the only alternative to the impunity and corruption they have suffered in the hands of the Pharaoh who has selfishly cornered the state and its resources these past 20 years.
