T he Chairman of Lagos State Parks and Garages, Alhaji Musiliu Akinsanya (aka MC Oluomo), has denied ordering sale of stickers with pictures of the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu to commercial bus operators and tricycle operators.
He said anyone found with the stickers should be arrested.

Akinsanya said: “I would have just ignored the video, knowing that it’s the handiwork of naysayers, but being in an election period, I also know their malicious intentions and the cheap political goal they aim to achieve with the video. I am, however, compelled for the sake of clarity to set the records straight. I did not know anything about the said sticker; neither did I sanction the sale. I’ve been to the location where the incident happened so that we could conduct an investigation, but we couldn’t find the person.
“We are against anything that will hamper the free flow of business activities or bring hardship to our people.
“I urge our people to be vigilant and remember that we are in an election period. As such, political parties will be looking for ways, both ethical and unethical, to outsmart themselves. I, however, implore them to leave me out of their political permutations and stop maligning my name for the sake of cheap popularity.”
