Africa’s richest woman, Folorunsho Alakija has disowned the posters advertising her interest in the Lagos Governorship election in 2015.
Alakija in a statement urged the people to ignore whatever they may have read purportedly portraying her as a governorship aspirant.
According to the statement,”It has come to my notice, that there are posters and fliers being circulated in Ikorodu and other parts of Lagos State announcing me as a Governorship aspirant.
“This is not true and I hereby confirm that I have no such intentions. Therefore, I disassociate myself from any persons or group of persons, posters or fliers in circulation about me contesting for governorship.
“I have been paying attention to my calling from God to look after widows and orphans through The Rose of Sharon Foundation and I am also in service most importantly to God’s work as a Minister of his Word through His Ministry committed to us as the Rose of Sharon Glorious Ministry International.
“God has not called me into politics and I have never been involved in politics. Please ignore whatever you may have read purportedly portraying me as a governorship aspirant.
Her posters were this morning seen at the Lagos State Government Secretariat, Alausa inviting people to support her ambition for the governorship seat.
The caption on the posters read: “2015: Vote Folorunsho Alakija for Governor.” The posters did not specify Alakija’s political will be contesting.
