As Jimi Benson flags off re-election campaign 

Member of the Federal House of Representatives and candidate of the All Progressives Congress for the Ikorodu Federal Constituency, Honourable Babajimi Benson will this morning officially flag off his re-election campaign. 

Jimi Benson who many describe as the poster boy of the APC in Ikorodu will be holding this campaign rally, an assemblage of followers, party faithfuls and electorates at the popular Ita-Elewa Open Ground Opposite Post Office, off Pasokun street in Ikorodu division of Lagos State.

Also expected to grace the occasion are party bigwigs from at state and federal levels, fellow members of the House of Representatives, state assembly members and party candidates, local government chairmen as well as other top shots in the APC. 

Jimi Benson was first elected into the National Assembly in 2015 and observers say he has performed incredibly well to deserve another term in office. 

Many also mention his monthly ‘Mercy Bag’ distribution which is the first ever Food Bank in Nigeria as a massive aid to the masses which means JB feels the pulse of his people.

Asides the monthly ‘Mercy Bag’ which is also known as ‘Apo Anu’, Jimi Benson according to facts on ground has also engaged in several intervention activities including building and renovation of schools, building and equipping of ICT Centres in schools, construction of boreholes, grading of bad roads in the division, organising trainings and skills acquisition programmes amongst many other activities.  

As Jimi Benson flags off today, many believe it is barely a customary effort because he is one of the few candidates for elective office who require minute accentuation to win the election. Unlike many other candidates especially incumbents who are having it difficult to get elected, JB according to observers will simply have a walk over his opponents.
