You Were Not Re-elected, You Selected Yourself – Falz Slams Sanwo-Olu

Nigerian singer, Folarin Falana, popularly known as Falz, has said the Governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, was not elected but selected himself.

The singer made this known in a response to an appreciation tweet made by the re-elected Governor Sanwo-Olu.

Sanwo-Olu was declared the winner of the February 18 governorship election by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

The Governor, on his Twitter page, thanked Lagosians for re-electing him into office.

He wrote, “Thank you Lagosians! I am deeply humbled and grateful for the overwhelming support and trust of the good people of Lagos State.

“I am honoured to be re-elected as your Governor and pledge to continue to work tirelessly to deliver a better Lagos for all. Thank you for believing in me.”

Reacting to this, Falz wrote, “You were not re-elected. You selected yourself. Everybody saw it unfold. You are only deceiving yourselves.”
