Lagos – Thousands of waste managers in Lagos and other South Western states have endorsed the presidential ambition of the Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The managers also threw their weight behind the second term re-election bid of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State

The waste managers, under the aegis of the Association of Waste Managers of Nigeria (AWAMN), popularly known as PSPs, who made the pledge during a meeting on Thursday at Mobolaji Johnson Arena, formerly known as Onikan Stadium, vowed to mobilise all its members for door-to-door campaigns for Tinubu and Sanwo-Olu.

National President of AWAMN, David Oriyomi, said it was Tinubu who brought in the PSPs in 1999 when he was governor of Lagos State in a bid to tackle the waste problems of the state.

“He nurtured and empowered us through the small-medium business model, and successive governments built on this solid foundation.

” Lagos was transformed and received numerous accolades as one of the cleanest states in Nigeria and Africa.

“When our livelihood came under attack and 350 businesses were faced with the risk of bankruptcy, Asiwaju came to our rescue, by speaking out for us, thereby securing our livelihood.

“Today, the small business model established by Asiwaju has been
replicated in over 9 states in Nigeria and other West African countries.

“It is for this reason, we as an association are fully and wholly committed to voting and campaigning for Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the next President of Nigeria,” he said.

Governor Babajide Sanwo – Olu

Oriyomi also recalled that AWAMN was the first organization that
endorsed the candidacy of Sanwo-Olu in 2018, saying that the association was pleased that he has “proven us right by the great work that he has done in the State and for the environment.

“You will all recall that he inherited heap of wastes across the state.

“He started by declaring a state of emergency and backed it up with
action, leaving Lagos better than what he inherited.

“Now, under his leadership, waste is now seen as resources and we are humble to be his foot soldiers to making circular economy a reality.

“We are committed to a Greater Lagos Rising.”

Oriyomi pledged that the association would embark on a door-to-door campaign, to reach every nook and cranny of the state for Tinubu and Sanwo-Olu.

“We will secure 10million votes for our Grand Patron, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Kashim Shettima.

“We will secure two million votes for our Governor, Mr.BBabajide Olushola Sanwo-Olu and Dr. Femi Hamzat.

” We will secure votes for all the Governors in all the states that we operate in,” he stated.

Governor Sanwo-Olu, who made a brief appearance at the event, pledged to increase the salaries of waste managers in the state.

He called on them to vote massively for Tinubu, himself and other APC candidates contesting for various positions in the February 25 and March 11 elections.

Sanwo-Olu reminded them that it was Tinubu who brought in PSPs to Lagos, saying “this is where you eat, don’t listen to lies, we will increase your wages.”

Also speaking, Deputy Governor of Lagos, Dr. Kadri Hamzat told the waste managers that it was Tinubu who brought about the PSPs, which many
states have adopted.

“Tinubu knows the way, we should get our PVCs and mobilize others to get their PVCs to vote for Tinubu and Sanwo-Olu.

“Let them know that it is Tinubu we are voting for. When he gets to Abuja, he will perform.

“Many States in Nigeria now have KAI, LAWMA and LASTMA. Tinubu is our teacher. On March 11, we should come out and vote for Sanwo-Olu,” he
said.

Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer (CEO), LAWMA, Ibrahim Odumboni, said what has become AWAMN today had its foundation solidly laid by Tinubu many years ago.

He noted that “since one good turn deserves another, it is only worthwhile that the association mobilise its members and workers in hundreds and thousands, for APC’s victory in next month’s elections.

“As an emerging mega city at the time, Lagos State needed to solve the challenge of solid waste management, which the administration of Asiwaju
Tinubu as governor of the time, confronted frontally, leading to the emergence of the PSP operators,” he said.

Odumboni stated that through successive stages, they had evolved over time, wading through challenges, but ultimately leaving the environment and the cityscape the better for it.

He commended AWAMN, its executive and the teeming PSP personnel in
demonstrating a massive show of support for Tinubu’s presidential
ambition, and the re-election bid of Sanwo-Olu.

Odumboni noted that while this mobilisation was encouraging, the
association must equally translate the massive support to electoral
votes on election day, saying this was the only way to truly appreciate and help actualize the worthy ambitions of Tinubu and Sanwo-Olu.

Chairman, APC, Lagos State chapter, Pastor Cornelius Ojelabi urged the waste managers to vote massively for Tinubu for laying the foundation for a solid Lagos.

“Vote for him to become president. Collect your PVCs, tell others to go and collect their PVCs so that we can vote for Tinubu and Sanwo-Olu,” he said.

Top politicians in attendance include the Lagos State Commissioner for the Environment and Water Resources, Mr. Tunji Bello, and Mr. Joe Igbokwe, the Special Adviser for Drainage and Water Resources, the Ogun State Commissioner for Environment, Mr. Ola Oresanya among others. (vitalnewsngr.com)
