Hundreds of Lagos West Traditional chiefs have pledged their communities' support for the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu and all of the party's candidates in next month's general elections.

They gave the pledge during a meeting at the weekend at Akesan in Alimosho Local Government Area (LGA).

According to them, it was important for traditional chiefs to aid the success of the general election by urging their community residents to come out and perform their civic responsibilities.

However, the Chairman, Council of Chiefs in Lagos West and Baale of Ijon land, urged the state government to speed up the provision of basic amenities needed in their domain.

These, he said, include good welfare, infrastructure development, salary increment, the elevation of their status on the throne, periodic seminars and full recognition of Baales during and after elections.
