The pharmacist-turned politician described the PDP as the
most viable platform he needed to bring about the desired change by
Lagosians.
Agbaje stated this during his visit to the PDP secretariat in Ikeja, Lagos, southwest Nigeria on Monday.
It
was gathered that he joined the PDP some months ago and had been
attending the party’s meetings at his Ward B, Apapa 1, Lagos, ever
since.
His visit to the party’s office finally put paid
to the rumour making the rounds on whether or not he will contest the
2015 election on the platform of the PDP.
Agbaje, who
stormed the party secretariat with his supporters, held a meeting with
the party’s State Working Committee (SWC) members, headed by Captain
Tunji Shelle.
He equally had another round of meeting
with the non-Central Working Committee of the party on strategies to be
adopted in order to win the 2015 election.
Addressing
the SWC, he said: “I decided to choose the PDP to realise my political
ambition based on the common and aggregated opinion among the core of my
supporters across the state that the party was the most viable platform
interested in causing the change desired by Lagos people.”
He
added that he would promote a consensus for what he called a Lagos
agenda if given the opportunity to serve the state in 2015.
Agbaje
charged the leaders to always remain united and make the party open and
attractive for more people to join in order for them to make more
meaningful impact in the party.
Responding, the
Chairman of Lagos PDP, Captain Shelle, congratulated Agbaje for coming
on board the party, declaring that the PDP was positioned to win the
2015 polls and form the next government in the state.
Shelle expressed the hope that Lagos people were ready to go the way of Ekiti people by voting the PDP to power.
He
assured Agbaje that the leadership of the party under him would
guarantee a level playing field for all its aspirants in picking who
would eventually fly the governorship flag of PDP in Lagos come 2015.
