Yoruba are a people who look to their leaders to lead them and Tinubu is their Leader (Like it or not). They are not like we Igbo "na agba ofe aka anyi"

How?

(1.)He's too stubborn...

(2) It is not when one is on ground that you know what's up with Ambode and governing of Lagos. There are rules that you cant ignore, even jagaban himself never operate outside the rules. You have an obligations to people that can't be compromised, because if you do, you would be trampled upon no matter what your record says. Ambode met a blueprint that was used by BRF himself, and you can only do little to better it. Example Lagos Badagry expressway ought to have been finished by now, but because of your high handedness he made it a show of Fashola and he forgot that opposition would use it to campaign against him. I like him but he disappointed the party leaders and members. Sorry, tori aso Oba omoye mo, omoye to run hoho woja.

Do you know that Tinubu has mobilized Millions just 2months ago through his "Tinubu Foundation" I must have photocopied hundreds of those forms while it was ongoing here in my area, and i suspect it was the same in all areas of Lagos.

fact is , tinubu owns the total grass root structure of APC in Lagos, including other state structure like NURTW, market women association, local government chairmen a good number of partisan civil service etc, but regardless of all that, ambode still boost of massive goodwill among nonpartisan electorate, his last town hall meeting, the support for him was massive. and he controls largest IGR given him financial muscle.

buhari should allow ambode to go on primary now, why fear if the stakeholders of APC Lagos likes him. it's undemocratic to impose candidate on the party stakeholders. why tinubu is being popular is because he interest these same stakeholders (mandate group) he can't do any party activities without carrying them along

politics is not that predictable, if agbaje can pull a massive 600k votes out I bet you, ambode would double that in any party against sanwolu, tinubu's last card is an impeachment threat should ambode crosscarpet, and that can be stalled

What is happening in Lagos is an example that Nigeria is a huge joke. How can tinubu sit down one place and dictate who becomes governor of a state. Rubbish angry

They fail to understand that Ambode is not the market man politician or the agbero politician, he is learned, liberal and enlightened and may not deem it fit to always parley or roll deep with the omoniles as he does not fit in..

Tinubu should thread carefully as despite the ethnic and tribal division of 2015, it was just less than 100k margin.

Why the warning, is that not our prayers. We want freedom from tyranny and oppression and holligalistic politics as been practiced in Lagos. Let the money made in Lagos be used to better the lives of lagosians.

Ambode cannot win the Lagos election outside APC.

If PDP takes him, their loss margin would be triple that of 2015.

As of today, Ikorodu is probably the most populated Local government in Lagos and Ambode is disliked there.

He's disliked in Amuwo also.

If he was sure of himself, he would have decamped.

As far as am you have to be stubborn to achieve in Nigeria politics. A case in study is Chris Ngige and Andy Uba, when the former was forcefully wheedle, but Ngige was stubborn, Obansanjo and Tinubu, the later created 57 LCDA. Ambode was not supported by the party on vision scape. Listen to Jdimi Disu's interview with an APpC stalwart

Aquariann:




You guys are not being fair to Tinubu and you know it. You accuse the man of god fatherism and imposition of candidates and he says fine, let's have direct primaries So everyone can test his/her popularity as against using delegates (that are easily influenced), you now say no. You want him to impose Ambode again on the party. If Ambode feels he has done so well why is he scared of direct primaries?

N1 trillion budget and all he has to show are bus stops and a dirty city?

Besides, it is silly to think Tinubu just sit down and make proclamations and there become law in Lagos. Not at all. Tinubu is only the face of powerful ruling class Ambode had failed to recognize or tried to overrun, that's why he's scared to face them now in direct primaries.

Fashola was very strict, had issues with Tinubu but still enjoyed the massive support of parry stakeholders because he got the job done. Ask yourself this, why is everyone against Ambode in Lagos, right from Alausa?
Nice write you have here . However, i just wanted to say Ambode hasn't done badly in the last three and half years. To me he's done credibly well. Although, he made some mistakes by cancelling the regular PSP. Lagos is dirty these days, we can't deny that. I'm so sure Ambode is trying to correct that singular MISTAKE!

As regards the Direct Primaries talk, who told you Jagaban cannot still influence his loyal party members to vote against Akinwunmi? If i was Ambode, I'll do what he's doing now by trying to make the Presidency comes in. Tinubu introduced this Direct Primaries and he can still influence it badly to favour his own candidate.

Let me state here that If the Direct Primaries would hold come next week in Lagos, i doubt if Ambode would get the ticket, not because Akinwunmi has done badly, but because Tinubu would have bought party loyalist against Ambode, and this will consequently make Sanwo-Olu victorious.

If the fate of the Direct Primaries would be left to me and you in Lagos, irrespective of whatever Jagaban knows best to do, Ambode would flop whoever stands as his opponent.

I just wanted to say Tinubu still has power over the Direct Primaries as the regular ''Imposition" they used to do..

I stand to be corrected though!

U can assert same for Ambo B4 2015.
But currently he's the incumbent and the largely looming face of Lagos reconstruction. U Know Lagosianss thought Fashola transformed Oshodi untill Ambo came along. Don't forget that Lagos almost went to PDP (600k votes) because of d yeye harassment of lastma on Lagosians in 2015. Hence HRH Akiolu's threats.


Tinubu just wants a better deal from Ambo going forward. He's too experienced for all these drama abeg!
Ambo will definitely fly APC or PDP flag period.

Why is Ambode afraid of direct primaries?APC at the national level has given directives that all the states in Nigeria should conduct direct primaries !so why go to Abuja ,Five years ago APC in Lagos had elections and Ambode emerged as the candiate for APC governorship election . did Ambode go to Abuja ?
if you are sure of the grassroots support pls go for the election and test your popularity.

Lol Ambode's incumbency would only help him if the primaries are indirect. That way he can settle the delegates. If its direct primaries, he would lose badly.


PS: Tinubu has no problem with Ambode, APC members outside Tinubu have problems with Ambode.

My own little understanding is that it's it's voting process by party members to determines who gets the party ticket for a position.

This whole issue will surely favour PDP, because some aggrieved Ambode followers in the state will surely not vote APC if Ambode looses the primaries.

All I just want is for Jagaban to loose his grip of Lagos state.

Yes it is. Every registered member of the party votes at the primaries at their different ward levels. That was how the APC candidate in Osun emerged. Indirect was/is the commonly used method whereby only selected delegates gets to vote for the party flag bearer, and this method is the easiest to influence or hijack by bribing the delegates.
