He added that the people of Badagry were making moves to meet with the President to formally present their appeal and address the issue.
Shenayon said, “We will present a quality candidate, and we hope the leadership will grant our request.
In a joint statement signed by Shenayon, and other indigenes Moses Ogunbiyi, Sejuro Samuel, Rofeequat Onabamiro, Kamoru Ajape, and Babatunde Olaide-Mesewaku, the Badagry people stressed the importance of zoning the ticket to their division.
