Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Lagos Deputy Governor, Femi Hamzat has asked supporters of Peter Obi to stop cheap tactics that would not yield political gains.<\/p>\n

Hamzat gave the warning in a statement by his Senior Special Assistant on Media, Tunde Alao.<\/p>\n

During the rally in Lagos on Saturday, a picture went viral after the Labour Party (LP) candidate\u2019s followers labelled it Hamzat\u2019s son.<\/p>\n

\u201cLagos State Deputy Governor\u2019s son Femi Hamzat, joins the obidient rally in support of Peter Obi\u201d, the caption read.<\/p>\n

The rejoinder explained that the individual in the photograph is neither the deputy governor\u2019s son nor his relative.<\/p>\n

It called the claim another mischievous, false and malicious attempt to cause friction between the deputy governor and loyalists across Nigeria.<\/p>\n

It noted that Hamzat has a reputation of commitment and loyalty to the Sanwo-Olu led administration and the All Progressives Congres (APC).<\/p>\n

\u201cHis support is for Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Senator Kashim Shettima.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur party and all our supporters are working hard to ensure that our candidates get the votes of Nigerians and ours is not about bogus statistics and lies,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He advised Obi\u2019s supporters to get serious with their campaigns and urged Nigerians to be on the look out for actions meant to deceive them.<\/p>\n
