The Politics Been Played By APC In Lagos! (opinion) by Nobody: 9:57am On Sep 19, 2018
What is the beauty of democracy?

well, some will say it's the power given to the masses to be able to vote for their choice. well that's correct, but the beauty can also be the deceptions and gimmicks employed by the political jurgarnuts to pull the masses to their side. Now, that is the beauty of Democracy!


A case study of Lagos state. The internet and infact the ears of Nigerians home and abroad has been full of the rancours between Tinubu(Jagaban) and his godson Ambode (governor of Lagos state).

It is no more news that Ambode has been rejected by the bigwigs of Lagos political sphere and adopted the idea of Jide Sanwo-olu as the next governor of Lagos state!

Well don't be deceived, I think Tinubu is only playing politics here!


Ambode is coming back as the Governor till 2023

To me, this is very easy to decipher!

Tinubu has a rift with Ambode, yet he was allowed to finish his tenure as the Governor!
I stand corrected, Tinubu has more than 2/3(if not all) of the state house of rep law makers. He could have easily ousted the 'erring son' out of the government house with or without the consent of the masses! some allegations levied against the governor are the fact that he is destroying the legacies of the former governor and leader of Apc Party.


Tinubu would shot himself at the leg if he decides to do away with Ambode come 2019. Many people are already clamouring for change, some truly believes the change they expected from Buhari ain't forth coming, hence they need to test another shift of power!
Tinubu who has held the power mantle of Nigeria south west is not only well lettered about this fact, he knows for sure that if he should force Sanwo-olu down the throat of Lagosians, it would just be his DOOM! Have you ever heard about 'pity votes' yes, that exactly is what other Political parties would get from the masses!

Ambode is the man of the masses, no doubt! He has done so well with the developmental steering of Lagos state!

I am a man of the street and yes, I have my ears to the ground always when it comes to politics(lagos,oyo).
While some governors are busy saving Paris club Refunds for personal gains/ paying salaries... Ambode was busy using the money beautifying lagos!

You can't take it away from Lagosians, the love the have for this chubby governor can't just be wiped out yet, Asiwaju knows this too well too!


The Politics been played

See the plan:

Use Sanwo-olu as a distraction, get the governor on his toes, get enough pity from the masses (for the governor) and then show how internal democracy abounds within the party (indirect primaries). Then vote in the Incumbent(Ambode). Don't ask me, you and I know that is a sure win for the party during the General election!


Well, this is only a speculation by myself, it doesn't represent the heart of the Jugarnuts. My prayers are not too much! I pray Asiwaju doesn't shoot himself at the leg by removing Ambode, if he does..... He should just forget about Epe division of Lagos and it's environs! no matter how they score the performance of the governor, he has done so well to his hometown, Epe....

Caveat: Sanwo-olu shouldn't rejoice yet, even if he gets the mandate to bear the flag of the party, he should know the same thing would befall him... Lagos is known to set the pace, and if the pace of one tenure has been set, he also won't be spared come 2023!

Drabeey should stop smoking weed,and stop trying to make sense of something above his pay grade.

Stick to the more simpler matter of Miracle and Nina.
