Jide Sanwo-Olu, a governorship aspirant in Lagos state, has appointed coordinators for his campaign ahead of the All Progressives Congress (APC) primary election in the state.
The names of the coordinators were released in a statement signed by Tayo Ayinde, director-general of the campaign team.
Sanwo-Olu, who is believed to have the backing of Bola Tinubu, a national leader of the party, is challenging Akinwunmi Ambode, governor of the state, for the ticket of the APC in 2019.
Currently, the managing director of Lagos State Property Development Corporation (LSPDC), Sanwoolu is backed by Mandate Movement, a group loyal to Tinubu, Ambode’s estranged godfather.
