National Coordinator Of Conference of APC Support Groups in the South West, Dele Fulani has come out to clarify the party members’ and supporters’ concerns over allegations that President Bola Tinubu is favoring Lagos with appointments over other South Western states.

On Wednesday, in a press release titled, “Dangers of Lagosizing South West”, he called out the president stating that he only appoints “Lagos Boys” referring to politicians who have played their politics in the city of Lagos for the majority of their political career.

It was disclosed in an interview on Friday that Fulani emphasized the need for the president to not only spread out appointments to the other parts of the South Wst but also to other regions of the country.

There have been accusations that 13 out of 20 appointments made by the president since his inauguration into office are either from Lagos or play a major role in Lagos politicians.

Fulani urged the president to look to other sides of the South West and balance out his appointment method. “What has Lagos contributed to the victory of Mr President?

If the election were to be solely relied on what comes out of Lagos, I think we wouldn’t be talking about Mr. President being the president.

“Mr. President should look out for other parts of the South West, those that have contributed to his success.

“Look at Ondo State, look at Ekiti. Look at Oyo, Ogun, and Osun. It shouldn’t be Lagos alone.

“And also, the sense of entitlement of Lagos politicians doesn’t do well with us. The pressure on the president is mainly from Lagos politicians, not politicians from other parts of the South West.”

“I am a politician. We see the character of our people. We see Lagos politicians, the way they come in. Let me tell you, we can’t get anything done in the Villa without calling somebody from Lagos.

“Even to some of us in the South West, to me as an individual, even with my capacity in the party, when I want to do something in the Villa, I have to call somebody in Lagos.

“The president should spread out to other regions, even beyond South West. Because all that we are saying, look at the appointments, the evidence is there.”
