I Don’t Regret Running For Office – Funke Akindele Speaks After Election Loss by GistONg(m): 4:55pm On Mar 20, 2023
Funke Akindele, the Deputy Governorship Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in Lagos State, has talked about her involvement in the election.

It has been an amazing and insightful experience on my journey to the ballot and I must say, it was an absolute learning curve for me. A lot of things have been learned and unlearned. I sincerely do not regret taking this huge step of running for office.

I therefore want to thank the people of Lagos state for believing in me and supporting my decision to run for office. I saw every message of support online and offline, I heard of all the places where people supported me and challenged those who tried to discredit me. I remember every warm welcome during our campaign tour and the faith you all showed in me. The elections might not have panned out in the way we hoped, but it was an honourable run for us. We fought a good fight indeed as a matter of fact.

I also want to encourage all who mean well for the Nation and the state of Lagos not to give up. I understand that some of us are beginning to develop some sort of apathy towards the system, however, if we do not speak, we would never be heard. I’m glad that we could at least speak up.

Thank you once again Lagos, for showing your daughter support. As I consider my next moves in life, I will continue prioritizing the good of the people and the integrity of my position as an advocate for the people.

Eko oni baje!

Jennifer of Ayetoro... She tried her best and we are proud of her

Funke Akindele, Toyin Abraham, Mercy Johnson, Regina Daniels, these are women who went all out to campaign even with insults and bashing, they stood their ground

We have no problem with you our Jenifa.
Who we have problem with is Shinedu and his shisha-smoking running mate, who think they can use a non-Yoruba tribe to become governor of Lagos.

Jandor failed the moment he chose this woman as a running mate.

In Lagos of all places, he chose not to be serious angry

Funke was mobbed by urchins the day she went to campaign. Is her mother Igbo too? Was she not qualified as a true Lagosian? Urchins can k1ll their own parents to protect Tinubu's dynasty while wallowing in abject poverty. You identify a Yoruba by the level of his dirtyness. Tueh

Well done funke akindele, we love you and jandor

But this time, we had to send a clear message that some people should mind their business .

Other tribes are in Lagos minding their business, they do their stuffs and vote quietly. But some people will not let us hear word. The noise is just too much.

After Ekiti people voted their choice in presidential, they began to curse and mock them while they voted their own for southeast having over 90% of votes.

Na dem go make noise pass, do gragra, na we dey here, na we! Na dem go drag house of rep, decide who to become governor . Now they lost and they are crying all the way from Onsitha and Abia for election whey happen for Lagos.

No man’s land 120
No mans land 2000
No mans land 24000

Who get Lagos??
