The Electoral fortunes of the Lagos State PDP gubernatorial candidate, Mr. Jimi Agbaje, in the February 2015 general elections, received a major boost over the weekend with the inauguration of the Jimi Agbaje Independent Campaign group (JAICG). According to the Group’s Director of Communication, Mrs. Victoria Falowo, its membership cuts across key players in the organized private sector (OPS), Youths and Women Organizations, with no particular affiliation to the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
The major drive of the Group is to independently work with like minds in all sectors of the State by employing a very vigorous person-to-person and door mouth-to-door mouth campaign to see that their prized asset in the person of Mr. Jimi Agbaje, a thoroughbred Lagosian and professional par excellence, emerge Victorious in the February elections.
Already as part of ways in the achievement of their goals, the group has gone ahead to set up a website and social media platform on facebook and Twitter, to further enhance interaction, as well as engage Lagosians and the voting public on the need to queue behind the PDP candidate, Jimi Agbaje by emphasizing his strong points and value which amongst so many others are a strong pedigree, a quintessential professional, an avowed listener and more importantly a good team player.
The Jimi Agbaje Independent Campaign Group (ICG) is a platform founded by passionate Lagosians who are truly committed to the desired leadership change in Lagos State. The founders strongly desire to effectively compliment all efforts to effect this change through the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Candidate, Mr. Jimi Agbaje.
The ICG is totally independent of the PDP, any other political party, political machinery, personalities or structures. Its membership is based on:
“The common conviction that Jimi Agbaje is the right person to govern Lagos State for now.
“Evidence of registration to vote (possession of a Permanent Voter’s Card).
The group aims to among others , “organize a large segment of the Lagos State electorate in favor of Jimi Agbaje, ahead of the 2015 Governorship election and beyond.
“ Encourage and build a massive volunteer- base for the Jimi Agbaje project.
“ Motivate, incentivize and positively engage members of the network through developmental programmes and activities such as mentorships, cooperatives, talk-shops, multi-level meetings, seminars, merchandising (among others)”
