Nigerian Billionaire, Femi Otedola, has backed the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Babajide Sanwo-Olu, for Lagos governorship.

The Forte Oil Chairman has however thrown his weight behind Mr Sanwo-Olu who happens to be the preferred choice of the national leader of the APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, for the Lagos governorship election.

Otedola made his position known in an Instagram post on Saturday.

He wrote, “Dinner at my residence yesterday evening with my childhood friend, APC governorship candidate, Jide Sanwo-Olu; the governor in waiting.”
