Lagos 2019: Ambode Dares Tinubu, Says I Won't Step Down by BeeBeeOoh(m): 6:00am On Sep 29, 2018 |
APC leaders to endorse Sanwo-Olu, Hamzat joint ticket today “Ambode was told in plain terms that the party will not support his second term ambition and as such should step down for the candidate the party members are clamouring for.” The battle for the soul of Lagos State took a strange twist yesterday when Governor Akinwunmi Ambode boldly told a meeting of leaders of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, at the Bourdillon, Ikoyi home of the party’s National Leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, that he will not step down for their preferred candidate in the 2019 governorship race in the state. https://www.google.com/amp/sunnewsonline.com/lagos-2019-ambode-dares-tinubu-says-i-wont-step-down/amp/ 16 Likes 3 Shares

Ambode and Otedola must not contest in 2019 under different parties. Otherwise, Sanwo Olu will not survive. No political analyst can tell me APC can match their combo force. It is simply impossible. In 2019 election of Ambode, Sanwo Olu and Otedola, victory is certain for everybody but SANWO OLU. Just read between the lines. Though it will be tough for Ambode to contest under different party , as he might not be able to stand the consequence (impeachment). Drama! 21 Likes 2 Shares |

I couldn't help laughing when Deomelo labeled Ambode as an incompetent fellow in one of these threads. I think the guy should give Ambode's CV a second look. Even his paymaster, Aregbesola the WIELDER, can only dream of his professional competence. What am I driving at? Ambode's flaws stem from his personality, obviously not his background. 50 Likes 3 Shares |

It's very good the man is putting up a small fight. So they knew what happened in osun state? Even if ambode eventually wins or not, tinubu wing is gonna be crippled. Some truth about him will soon start popping out. To my fellow defenders of Buhari cos of tinubu, can we see the handwriting on the wall? The way Buhari saw and treated him after the 2015 election is the same way he is still treating him except that tinubu has been trying to lick the ground Buhari stepped on to try and curry favour from him but Buhari and his cabal don't just like this man. Can u guys stop and ponder what will happen if Buhari wins 2019? The north will continue to play and use u guys. So shameful 70 Likes 4 Shares |

Even though I don't like Tinubu dictating who governs Lagos, any other person has right too to contest against him for the post. First term does not guarantee another term let alone for govs that has performed woefully. Just imagine giving Engr Umahi of Ebonyi a rich state like Lagos. 26 Likes 2 Shares |

The Ambode camp however appears determined to enter into full battle with Tinubu and his men. A source close to the governor told Saturday Sun yesterday that, “Tinubu and his men are jokers, if they fail to present Ambode for second term, they will lose Lagos like they lost Osun, forget the eventual manipulation of the final result.”Hehehe! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 7 Likes |
