"They are telling the estates people to come out to the express road which is not where the legal position of the polling unit should be.
"We have a situation all over Ikate and several places like Ojo, computer village, I am hearing that there is voter suppression there but we are dealing with it in our situation room and our security team to resist all these forms of intimidation.
"It is very unfortunate that Lagos state has been under the rule of people who only bring about thuggery and violence every four years. Even when they had the opportunity to do well for the people."
