This group consists of nine like-minded candidates vying for positions on the board.
The endorsement was spearheaded by Mr. Tope Akindele and seconded by Mr. Clement, Sole Administrator for the Seme Chapter during a meeting of the zone held at the Villa Park Hotel, Amuwo Odofin, Lagos, on Thursday. A vote immediately followed, with 34 of the 38 members present casting their ballots in favor of the adoption.

While speaking, newest ANLCA Patron, Prince Taiye Oyeniyi affirmed that the sincere wishes of the people will always prevail, and joined the ‘yes sayers’ to go to the accredited voting locations to vote the 9 like-minds.
“The voice of human beings is the voice of God. Put all these candidates in your prayers, and let us see wonders on the day of election. The BOT election is going to be a seamless one.”
