Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu halted his convoy on February 3, 2022 in Lagos to speak two out-of-school girls.Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Thursday briefly halted his convoy to interact with two underage girls on an errand for a bean cake vendor during school hours.According to the statement, the girls – Amarachi Chinedu, 9, and Suwebat Husseini, 12 – were forced to skip school by their parents in order to serve some domestic assistance around Anthony Village area.
“I saw something that made my heart bleed on my way to this function. I saw two little girls – ages 9 and 12 – carrying buckets on their heads to grind pepper at 11am when they were supposed to be in school. I stopped immediately, having seen how vulnerable they are and the risk we are putting them through.
“These two girls will be under my care and that of the First Lady. There are several Amarachi and several Suwebat out there, who will not have this kind of opportunity. Everyone of us can take the same decision and listen to stories of kids who may be vulnerable. If we choose to take up this responsibility as a people and give a voice to the vulnerable, we all can make a difference. There is no better kindness to be done to mankind than giving them a lifetime opportunity.
The Governor said his encounter with the girls brought the need to bolster Government’s support to public schools and raise the standards.
That is good from our governor
Election done reach..oga wil knw u
Election cometh These lads in wolf skin are trailing. Pretending and scheming Soon, some will come visiting May the odds never be in their favor
Helping two out of thousands out there is equal to doing nothing. They should do the needful
Commendable act, exemplary.

All of this are political propaganda and tactics, if only you could do this at least twice a month it would have been another story entirely,

Thank u your sir
If him like make him start d school with dem
Gov. Should also know that ,this is not only applicable this two girls,many are out there suffering and they should try and introduce scholarship to all schools
Do this every week, pick a city and visit during the school hours, check out for kids that are not in school roaming the street, hawking and all that, pick them off the street and send them to school. Put this as a challenge to others. Don’t do it for the campaign , stop faking
Just two, not even a community? Election is around the corner.. na una sabi
Loriro...... elections coming soon.....…
Nigerian politician will act as if they didn't know all that's happening

The problem is rather complex. Tokenism is no solution.
Aje.. they have started. Go to makoko slum and see a lot of them. And I noticed he didn't point this time.😂😂😂
Election is around the corner. At least someone should have helped them drop the buckets to rest small as he was talking to them.
Election is fast approaching, they are coming out with there foolish tricks
Nice one
Look at the size of those buckets on their head and the governor still have all temerity to address the girls .. And the writer is there too🤦🏼♂🤦🏼♂
Good for the girls, but all of them are political propaganda and tactics ... We still have the pictures of the crocodile smile
This crack head is gaining weight. Things I love to see 😆
Campaign for reelection has begun on a tactical note. Victims of endsars protests too will likely be compensated soon.
The election movies have started. Let’s pretend mr P Doesn’t know the kids under oshodi bridge should be in school!!! Abeg tell us who order the Lekkimassacre, what are those powers beyond your control that killed innocent protesters, set the toll gate on fire and tried to
This is an index for the governor to know good or bad they have performed, irrespective of their policy or intentional.There is a lot more of those kids out there, which translates to another problem in the future. I hope we have the sincerity to get it right.
Governor notice me.All this nollywood Acting na campaign.

Well written script by jidesanwoolu GovUmarGanduje must hear this.
Nice one, the girls are lucky 👏👏👏 but election time is coming, we've seen this shiiii before.
This is without doubt practical leadership and I am humbled to read this. I hope the governor become sincere enough to change the lives of the two poor little girls. I just hope
2022 around the corner
Yay! It's their season.
God bless you sir.
Election year us coming.
Hmmm must be election season
'A Good Politican'
Mr Governor know where all out of school children were but their is no camera their
Election is around the corner
Good politics
All this election tactics keep on if like even give crase scholarships APC is still the biggest disease
This is a pleasant experience for these girls and a painful one for lagosians and Nigerians. How does a governor or govt attend to issues like this with a bus conductor approach. Why do we accept such behavior. Is the govt not aware that some kids are out of school for funds?
Election don dey come... We know this tactics, it 0-1-10 😂
All this tactics no dey tire dem?
Thos only happen when election is near.
Expect more of this. I salute the power of election year
E get why😂😂😂
Nice script. But the writer should've made a provision for the heavy buckets to be taken down from the poor children—that's where the 'help' should've started from, or the governor forgot to act that part? Election 20:23 When you see these signs know that election is near
Ehen, 👍👍
I see u propping🤣
I hope he is not contesting for a second term?
😂
Such a kind governor! Kudos to jidesanwoolu
Mtchewwww rubbish
Kind gesture....recommendable
This are politics if he really wants to help the poor one's he should decline free 🆓 education in Lagos State
Correct Election deceit don start again, next we go hear na say him follow them go househo eat. Rubbish
As if they don’t see them all these while 😂
Such signs reminds Nigerians that elections are around the corner. 🤦🏽♂️
😂
I guess the hundreds of out of school kids in Makoko aren't Lagosians yeah ?
Face wer dy every where una cover am, who una dy deceive
