According to him, the outcome of Saturday’s presidential election in the state will have no effect on the state’s high standard of governance.
He said, “If you look at Mr. Sanwo-Olu’s earlier statement about peace in Lagos State, he asked people not to sow discord; he said he had governed Lagos for nearly four years without any form of discrimination along ethnic, racial, or religious lines.” And the development process has been evenly distributed throughout the state, and this will continue.
“The fact that we lost the presidential election does not indicate that we will lose control of the government.

This created a pocket of tension in the state on Monday, prompting the governor to urge residents to remain calm and avoid any actions that could result in a breakdown of law and order.
