…empowers Lagosians with food items, cash, others
A group of professionals across all fields of human endeavour, PRADO, an acronym for Professionalism, Reliability, Accountability, Diligence and Outstanding, said it will continue to engage the people of Lagos State on the need to put aside all sentiments and reelect Governor Babajide Sanwolu during Saturday’s election.
The group had recently partnered the state government to provide free eye glasses to Lagosians as well as support them with food and cash gifts to enhance their standard of living.
Speaking with Roundoffnews, the coordinator of the group, Director General, Kayode Adegbite said Sanwolu has shown rare leadership skills and diligence which made him deserve a second term to enable him consolidate on his achievements.
Mr. Kayose explained that the group also played critical roles in the emergence of the President-Elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and would not relent until Sanwolu gets his second term mandate.
Speaking on what the group has done so far, the DG said: “Early in 2022, we championed massive out-of-home/billboard campaigns for BAT and BOS across major digital billboards in the whole of Lagos and we have done this for about a year now. We in addition ran these campaigns on selected static billboards that fit into our strategic plans.
“Using our various platforms, we made both ‘Lekan Si’ and ‘Emi Lokan’ campaigns a household slogan early in the year 2022. Sequel to this we had run campaigns that showcased Sanwolu’s achievements in the first term vis-à-vis the rail project, his support for youths and women, medical and infrastructural developments amongst others.
“We created and launched ‘Follow Person Wey Sabi Road’ campaign for BOS in October 2022 and in November 2022 we started promoting BOS ‘Greater Lagos Rising’ campaign across major LED billboards in the whole of Lagos; and we’re still doing that now until after the elections.
“In January 2023, we thought to bring our campaign to the grassroots, so we gathered thousands of dispatch riders and did a road show across the whole of Lagos canvassing for both BAT and BOS while distributing souvenirs in support of them.
“In a bid to give us a nod and also motivate us to do much more, the Independent Campaign Council (ICC) headed by the DG Mr Tayo Akande and Deputy DG Cardinal Odunmbaku having seen our impacts registered PRADO as a member of the ICC and also honored us by inducting us into the Directorate in February 2023
“In March 2023 alone, we have produced and circulated the very first edition of PRADO Magazine which exposes the great works of BOS, the First Lady and other major personalities in the cabinet; we have packaged and distributed campaign palliatives and souvenirs across major touch points in Lagos; and conducted free eye tests and distributed free eye glasses in Lekki, Lagos.
