First Day At Work, Ambode Goes After Fashola’s Loyalists, Sacks Fashola’s Sister by lurther: 4:52pm On Jun 05, 2015 |
By Kola Popson The Executive Governor of Lagos State, Akinwunmi Ambode, may not have started his official assignment on a very friendly note with the immediate past governor of the State, Mr. Babatunde Raji Fashola (SAN) as many of the loyalists of the former governor have just been relieved of their various positions. According to our reliable source, who pleaded anonymous, Governor Akinwunmi Ambode sacked many of them the in his first day at work and he is even determined to send many others packing. This development has prompted many to wonder if the new governor is using this to settle a score with former Gov. Fashola. Governor Ambode revealed this sad news to the affected people in a meeting he had with all directors of Lagos State Agencies. One of those unlucky people that have fallen victims of this action of Gov. Akinwunmi Ambode is Ms. Ronke Azeez. Ronke Azeez was the coordinator of ‘Lagos Eko Project’. ‘Lagos Eko Project’ is a World Bank Assisted Project on Education in Lagos State. Ronke is adjudged by many, particularly by her employer, Babatunde Raji Fashola, very brilliant and innovative. Our source revealed that Gov. Ambode just asked the lady to handover to the next person to her without giving any reason. On a similar note, another person that has also been relieved of her position by Gov. Ambode is Adenike Adekanbi. Adenike Adekanbi is another innovative woman who has been the one in charge of Lagos State Facility Management Agency. From the investigation carried out by Naijahottestgist, we gathered that it was Deji Williams, Personal Assistant to Gov. Ambode, that had actually written the proposal that led to the birth of the agency during the administration of Babatunde Raji Fashola. Furthermore, it was revealed that Mr. Fashola realised that the proposal made so much sense, and handed it over to a commissioner (name withheld) for execution. It was this commissioner, due to his extra-marital affair with Adenike Adekanbi, who brought her (Adenike Adekanbi) into the picture. Unfortunately for her, the new governor of Lagos State, Akinwunmi Ambode was quoted to have said to her “I know everything that has been going on, handover to the next person to you.” Mr. Gbenga Akintola, Chairman of Lagos State Public Works Corporation (LSPWC) is another loyalist of Mr. Babatunde Raji Fashola that Gov. Ambode has decided to send packing from LSPWC. Gbenga Akintola was actually residing in the United States before. Our source revealed that his emergence as the Chairman of LSPWC was facilitated by his closeness to Prof. Wole Soyinka and Demola Azeez (Raji Fashola’s best friend). Indeed, we reliably gathered that after Gov. Ambode has asked Gbenga Akintola to handover to the next person to him at LSPWC, he eventually walked him out of the meeting. The last but not the least of those vital positions occupied by the loyalists of the former Lagos State Governor, Raji Fashola, and which Gov. Ambode has decided change their leadership is Lagos State Residents Registration Agency (LASRRA). This time, the victim is not just the loyalist of Raji Fashola, it is his younger sister, Ms. Yinka Fashola. Our reliable source revealed that Gov. Ambode has relieved the younger sister of Babatunde Fashola of her position as the General Manager of LASRRA. He instructed her to handover everything in her care as General Manager to the next person to her in the agency. Without doubt, many would begin to wonder why Gov. Ambode actually went after loyalists of his predecessor in his first week in office, knowing full well that Babatunde Raji Fashola was one of those few people who have aided the victory of Gov. Akinwunmi Ambode in the last Lagos State Gubernatorial election. Is this a good start for Gov. Ambode? http://www.naijahottestgist.com/2015/06/05/first-day-at-work-ambode-goes-after-fasholas-loyalists-sacks-fasholas-sister-and-others/ 2 Likes |

Nothing wrong with this. When Jonathan was making last minute appointments few days to the expiration of his tenure people were saying Buhari would remove some of them and I'm sure he would still do so in time. The fact is that no matter who Ambode sacks, the person was employed/appointed by Fashola and would thus necessarily be deemed to be a fashola loyalist. Ambode cannot be expected to go on with Fashola's appointees even if he doesn't trust them to deliver on his vision for Lagos. No matter how harsh it seems, it is no longer Fashola's vision for Lagos, it is now Ambode's vision and he has to hire and fire accordingly. After all, at d end of his tenure he will be accountable for his actions, not fashola. 2 Likes |

He must have his reasons. Let him be. I'd rather have someone who is bold enough to do this in his first week in office than having a stooge of the previous administration. |

Anybody that is politically exposed will know very well that this is Tinubu 's plan to remove Fashola's influence ( or probably reducing Fashola's weight in Lagos). This is act of relevance in the law of power, Tinubu will do everything as much as possible to control politics in Lagos. LAWS OF POWER Tinubu the master strategist, I HAIL THEE OOOO 1 Like |
