Ambode: Youths Threaten To Raze Akiolu’s Palace by dsleekman(m): 10:55am On Apr 12, 2015
Some youths in Isale-Eko
area of Lagos Island, on
Saturday threatened to
burn down the palace of
Oba of Lagos, Oba
Rilwan Akiolu, if the
governorship candidate of
the All Progressives
Congress (APC),
Akinwumi Ambode, loses
the governorship election.
Some of the youths who
gathered outside the Iga
Idungaran palace of the
monarch said the
statement credited to Oba
Akiolu where he
threatened Igbos in the
state with death if they
voted against Ambode
may have swayed votes in
favour of the governorship
candidate of the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP),
Jimi Agbaje.
One of the youths, named
Wasiu, said the only
saving grace for Oba
Akiolu is for Ambode to
emerge victorious at the
end of the exercise.
According to him, there
are lots of Igbo traders in
Lagos Island who are
APC loyalists, but many
of them have vowed to
vote for Agbaje after the
monarch’s threat.
Shouting at the top of his
voice, Wasiu said: “We
are waiting for the
outcome of the result to
determine our next line of
action. We have laboured
for Ambode all this while,
even some of my friends
have died when PDP
supporters attacked us.
But now Akiolu wanted to
rubbish everything we
have done.
“Some of our Igbo friends
who are APC supporters
have said they will vote
against the APC even if it
will cost them their lives.
We will burn down this
palace if Ambode loses
and nothing will stop us,”
he said.

I am sure the same youths must be in jubilant mood by now as they must have heard that Ambode has trashed Agbaje black and blue.

How can Agbaje even believe for a second that he could win a state that, OBJ with all the federal might at his disposal failed to wrestle from Jagaban?

How could he have believed that he had a chance in Lagos which GEJ/PDP knew they must win to have a chance at re-election; but failed to win with all the dollars and the federal might?

JK - Just kidding!

Bro, seriously I really want to know the soothsayer that told Agbaje he stands a chance in Jagaban's domain. A state the only genius of Jagaban's repute, OBJ could not win for years. Infact, with the way baba dey famz APC now, I'm beginning to believe Tinubu is a bit more genius (permit this grammar) than Baba.

No one stands a chance in Lagos as long as Jagaban lives. I'm sure Agbaje now know this for a fact.

I'm proud to be a progressive. I'm proud to be associated with Tinubu. And i'm proud we've made Igbos realise that Lagos is a Yoruba state.

Eko o ni baje.
