He also encouraged Lagosians to “stand against this sort of tyranny,” describing the elections as a fight for freedom, for democracy, and for Lagos.

Fellow Lagosians, we must stand against this sort of tyranny. This is no ordinary election. This is a fight for #Freedom. A fight for Democracy. A fight for Lagos. We will not be silent and we will not be oppressed or suppressed into a corner. This time around, Democracy must win
