The Lagos State Universal Basic\nEducation Board (SUBEB), on Tuesday, March 5, 2019 asked Headteachers of public\nprimary schools in the state to vote for the candidates of the All Progressives\nCongress (APC) in the March 9 Governorship and State House of Assembly elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
NAN reports that Dr Ganiyu\nSopeyin, the Executive Chairman, Lagos SUBEB, spoke at a stakeholders\u2019 meeting\nwith the Board, Headteachers, Nigeria Union of Teachers, Non-Academic Staff\nUnion (NASU) and Association of Public Schools Headteachers of Nigeria (AOPSHON).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The meeting was also attended by\nMr Tokunbo Wahab, Director of Education, Independent Campaign Group Babajide\nOlusola Sanwo-Olu (ICGBOS), at the SUBEB Complex, Maryland, Lagos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sopeyin said the essence of the\nmeeting was to sensitise teachers on the use of index fingers to vote on the\nballot paper during the elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe called this meeting to\nidentify ourselves with our dear party, APC in Lagos and Nigeria in general.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis meeting is to officially\nidentify ourself with the candidate of the party for gubernatorial election on\nMarch 9, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYou are the leader of your\nvarious schools, meet with all parents, teachers, food vendors and non-teaching\nstaff on the need to vote with their index finger and not the thumb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBy the grace of God, Lagos State\nhas always been adjudged the best SUBEB in Nigeria with the help of all of\nyou,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The SUBEB Chairman said Sanwo-Olu\nwas formerly the Commissioner for Establishment and Commissioner for Commerce\nand Industry, and was part of so many developmental projects of the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI want to assure all of you that\nall that we have been praising Gov. Akinwunmi Ambode for, the incoming governor\nwill improve on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSanwo-Olu has said it that\nminimum wage is the in-thing in Lagos. He is likely to look beyond the N30,000\nwe are asking for in Lagos,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He urged the headteachers to go\nback to their various schools to canvas and sensitise other members to the need\nto vote for APC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He urged them to put aside any\nform of rancour or misunderstanding now and support the party and the state\ngovernment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWhat we need to do now, it is\nvery important to know that we use our index finger to vote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIn the past, it was thumb\nprinting but we discovered that the thumb usually spread beyond and makes the\nballot paper invalid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe want you to go back to your\nschools and encourage others to vote, your neighbours, family, friends and\nteaching staff. Only talk cannot do it, you must sensitise them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe have just 48 hours to do\nthat, you have the responsibllity to ensure that everybody around you is\nencouraged to vote. We have this two days to do that, go out and encourage\npeople to vote,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
