A former Lagos State Commissioner of Justice, Mr. Supo Shasore, SAN who is a guber aspirant on the platform of the All Progressives Congress(APC) has said he has no godfather. Before now, the incumbent Lagos governor, Mr. Babatunde Fashola, SAN was believed to be his godfather. In a new interview, Shasore said, “I don’t have a political godfather. But in several capacities that I have served in public service in Lagos State, I have had reasons to deal with the length and breadth of stakeholders in this state. As Commissioner for Justice, I actually belonged to the government.
“As the Attorney-General, I actually belonged to the public, sometimes giving government advice that they don’t want to hear. I also collaborated with the legislature. The position afforded me the opportunity to interconnect with the three arms of government. So, this situation is unique in the sense that I had to deal with several stakeholders. I don’t have a godfather who is sponsoring me. I believe that I have all round acceptability. The disadvantage of having a godfather is that you suddenly lose acceptability across the board.”
