It is sad that we cannot campaign freely.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cElectoral Law allows us to campaign anywhere in Lagos State but it is unfortunate that political thugs could attempt to stop us.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn Tuesday, we were attacked in several wards in Kosofe and we were even prevented from entering markets to the campaign.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are more disturbed to hear that some of our loyalists, who came to welcome us, were prevented from entering the markets to continue their businesses,\u201d Amode said.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, the trend has been happening for a very long time, saying, \u201cthis is probably the fourth or fifth local government this will be happening.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am using this opportunity to call on President Muhammadu Buhari, who has promised Nigerians a free, fair, and credible election, to consider the process leading to the election in Lagos State.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is not only the election day that matters, the processes that lead to elections are equally important for the credibility of the election.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am also calling on the Inspector-General of the Police, the Commissioner of Police in the state and all Area Commanders of Police, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2021\/07\/31\/court-orders-apc-to-halt-congress-in-imo\/\">Director of the DSS<\/a> in Lagos State should be aware of this. We cannot continue to live in fear.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll these happenings are capable of intimidating the general public, especially the voters. This cannot continue,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He urged the police and other security agencies to see to the protection of the lives and property of those campaigning ahead of the forthcoming general elections.<\/p>\n<p>Amode said that the party and its candidate would not be intimidated, but would continue its peaceful campaign in the state.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe will stand up to the attackers everywhere they are and we will do everything possible under the law to go ahead with the campaign,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Watch video of the attack below:<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 426px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-244430-1\" width=\"426\" height=\"234\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2023\/01\/ify_davies\/2023\/01\/26\/326821597_207526745174809_7536162600131681729_n.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2023\/01\/ify_davies\/2023\/01\/26\/326821597_207526745174809_7536162600131681729_n.mp4\">https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2023\/01\/ify_davies\/2023\/01\/26\/326821597_207526745174809_7536162600131681729_n.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Abdul-Azeez Adediran (Jandor), the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate for governor of Lagos State, was attacked by political thugs once more on Wednesday in the Kosofe region of the state.
