LEADERS OF Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria, PFN, in Lagos State yesterday endorsed Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu for a second term, stating that he has performed well over the last four years.
Following a gathering in Ikeja, the fellowship’s leaders asked all Christians to support Sanwo-Olu on March 11.
The Chairman, Secretary, and other PFN leaders, including as Apostle Enyinnaya Okwuonu, Pastor Mahmood Akindejoye, and Bishop Theophilus Ajose, were present during the emergency meeting.
Ajose claimed that the Church had made the call for a Christian governor and added that PFN is firmly in support of Sanwo-Olu.
He said: “The church in Lagos State asked for a Christian Governor and Governor Sanwo-Olu has done very well in the last four years. This gubernatorial election is not about any political party but about the candidate. Mr Sanwo-Olu has made Christians very proud and has governed the state without any religious bias. He is one of us and the Church is speaking with one voice that Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu deserves our support again.’
“I call on all great church leaders across different religious divides – Pentecostals, Orthodox, OAIC, Muslims, religious and Christian organisations to support the gubernatorial candidacy of Mr Sanwo-Olu.”
Also speaking, the PFN State Chairman, Apostle Okwuonu said though PFN is not partisan and without prejudice to other contestants, Sanwo-Olu deserves a second term to complete the good works he has started in Lagos.
On his part, the PFN scribe, Apostle Akindejoye, urged all Christians to be united in supporting Sanwo-Olu for a second term bid.
