Many of us got to know him during the independent Campaign Council’s activities for Sanwoolu/ Hamzat gubernatorial reelection and Tinubu/Shettima presidential election, even though some of us had previous relationship with him which we had already spoken well of his character and person that was true to calling as he never disappointed and was also attested to by those just getting to know him as an unassuming jolly good fellow.
Tayo Ayinde’s accommodating, friendly and accessibility spoke volume of him being a grassroot politician that is a blessing and an asset to the Lagos political success.
For his political shrewdness and steadfastness as Campaign Director General, the endSARS turned Obidients opposition members nearly disrupted the trajectory of peace and development of Lagos because of the falsehood propaganda against Lagos and it’s the good accommodating people which the intelligent campaign boss that many affectionately call “Buffalo” strategically and successfully overturned to landslide victory for the party and it’s gubernatorial reelection.
We hereby congratulate you, Mr Tayo Akinmade Ayinde for your reappointment as Chief Of Staff to Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwoolu to enable you continue you good work for the next four years which is a testament in your capacity for excellence and quality service.
