How Punch Readers Reacted To Ambode's Call For Fasting by Bekwarra(m): 1:36am On Mar 08, 2015
The All Progressives Congress governorship
candidate for Lagos State, Mr Akinwunmi Ambode,
on Saturday said the party would use the remaining
days before elections to fast and pray for victory.
Ambode made this known while addressing APC
members and supporters in Lagos, who engaged in a 9.2km walk.
He addressed the APC members and supporters at
the Teslim Balogun Staduim, Surelere, Lagos, where
they ended the walk.
“We will commit the remaining days before the
elections to fasting and prayers and ensure that APC
gets 100 per cent votes,” Ambode said.
Ambode said APC had proven a point with the walk.
According to him, the party will give prosperity to
Nigerians, if voted for.
The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the walk
tagged “March For Change” was flagged off by the
National Leader of the party, Chief Bola Tinubu, at
Maryland at 8.00a.m.
The walk terminated at 1.05p.m. at the stadium.
In his address, Tinubu, appealed to Nigerians to vote for the party’s candidates in the forthcoming general elections.
Tinubu, the immediate past Governor of Lagos State,
said the party’s presidential candidate, retired Gen.
Muhammadu Buhari, was passionate about
transforming the country.
“I thank you all for the walk today. Now, we have
marched for that change we are clamouring for;
marching for common sense revolution.

These politicians can be clowns and believe in their
own junk. Fasting and Praying for 100percent votes
is as Stupid as it can get. God is not mocked and to
drag God into their madness is even more gulling.
They promised themselves 1.000.000 people march
and It appears they got a few 1,000. At least be
humble enough to say you flopped. If this was
about Buhari and not Tinubu. Why was Buhari not
there instead choosing to go and wish the man he
toppled Happy Birthday in a far away Sokoto.
Politicians and their wannabe!

We prayed in 2011 for God to give us a man of his
choice and he gave us Jonathan. All we need to do
now is to show God appreciation by reaffirming GEJ
till 2019.

No fasting can save you because JK is OK and GEJ is
our president

If you just gathered one million Lagosians to
march..clap and sing for you and your corrupt
godfather Tinubu..how come you declaring 21 days
fasting again?..Tinubu won elections in 1999 and
2003 without even coming close to a million
votes..Fashola won in 2007 with just over a million
votes..so when Ambode has a million people
marching for him..he should be declaring
victory..jokers!!..Let’s remind them that the prayer
of a sinner and deceptive thieves like them is an
abomination in the sight of God the Bible says..In
God and Agbaje Lagosians trust..JK is OK!!
Datuowei Victor
I want Lagosians to be aware of the gimmicks of
APC, that the million man march is only aimed at
deceiving the onlooker that Ambode is popular.
Now, Ambode is saying that himself and other APC
members will fast and pray for electoral victory.
Take a second look at Ambode, does he look like a
deciplined person? I do not think that man can
deprive himself of a meal for just 3 hours, talk more
of a whole 21 days. We should not forget that
Fashola did not want him as his successor, if not for
the influence of baba at Bourdillon. After all, it is on
record that the Fashola administration pushed him
out of Alausa, even though, he (Ambode) is claiming
that he retired from service.
We have gone beyond party barriers, thus, in this
elections we will vote personalities, and Jimmy
Agbaje is our man!

Tinubu, it’s over for you in Lagos…just embrace that
hurting reality.

Hitech & Alpha Betta are rendering services and are
getting paid for jobs done like every other company.
It’s on record that alpha Betta revolutionised
revenue collection in Lagos State. In consultancies
of this nature, payment of commission is legal &
normal. Even PDP states have understudied Lagos
State model and are now also implementing them
including auto registration popularly called autoreg.
This is far better than PDP govts across engaging in
outright looting & thieving under the protection of
president Jonathan.

APC supporters should fast and pray to get you into
office, and after their fasting and prayer! You get
into office and start looting on a massive scale to
please your godfather, forgetting people that fasted
and prayed you into office. Only ‘mumuns’ will heed
your selfish call.
lol
The e-pigs are really jiltery of the crowd at the rally.
One of them is so blind with sentiment that he
could see only 1000 ppl on the street. Wao, the fear
of Tinubu/Buhari is indeed the beginning of mental
disorder for d leadership of poverty development
party. A party without justice-edwin Clark n muazu,
a party that sponsor boko haram-late NSA Patrick
Aziz. God, save us from ebele ‘Ebola’ clueless virus.

APC is going on hunger strike. Fasting without
searching the bible is mere hunger strike and I don’t
expect Buhari and Tinubu to search the
biblebecause they read the book of saSatan called
Koran. I expected Buhari to join the train as the
greatest beneficiary of the match but who did we
see the ceo of lagos Tinubu with the MD fashola. I
now believe Fayose the great Ekiti governor.

Fasting and praying without good deeds is an
abomination unto God. Can APC stop harassing
innocent men and women who “huzzle” for daily
bread on daily basis. Think of the lekki toll
extortion , the agbero extortion of over 5,000 per
bus per day in Lagos,the KAI extortion of Hawkers,
the Latma extortion, the alpha beta extortion etc
etc. Can APC just say no from Monday to these
crimes against lagosians. I forgot the confiscation of
okadas even in places not considered an
expressway.
Henry Onwugbenu
it is good to fast and pray, the bible made it clear
that in prayer and fasting make your supplication
known to God, but my dear Ambode, what of during
your fasting and prayer God appeared to you and
told you to tell Rtd GMB to step down, what will you
doing?
arlima ibrahim
APC is too late to cry, your fasting is like pouring
water into a basket, no amount of fasting can save
you now.give Buhari a granny leave to be with his
grandchildren.#gej4naija.

Like seriously? is it part of the campaign plan from
onset? It looks me like its an activity they decided to
do out of frustrations of the lengthy days ahead
before the elections. dont get me wrong thats a
noble thing to do but God that wants the best for us
individually and for our country Nigeria as a whole
will definitely choose our leaders not in the likes of
people that will deceive us and cheat us all in the
name of ”change”. To be frank APC dont have
nothing new to present Nigerians or even Lagosians
with. Ive gone through their various states and even
the national proposed manifesto and all i see is a
bunch of repetitions, sentences reconstructions and
copy and paste of english from the days of ANPP to
CPC and now to APC. Nigerians now are undergoing
transformation process and we are too busy doing
that that we can afford any deviation or interuption
of any sort, Not even in the name of Change. Buhari
and his i will do this and i will do that will not make
us change our minds on our ultimate goal: A
BETTER NIGERIA wit president GEJ. I urge all other
members of the APC that have not gotten the
schedule to please get the schedules and lets all
pray from today till the elections day that God grant
our president (GEJ) the grace to lead Nigeria for
better achievements from today till May 29th 2019.

how many fasting are APC embarking on now?
Wonders shall never cease. How long will they keep
fasting? No amount of prayers and fasting will save
APC in this battle as they term to call it. APC are
nuisance, liars forgers and smugglers now they
want to fast. No problem let them go ahead and
continue to dry uu like bonga fish ooooo. GEJ is our
man and the man of the people. #GEJ4naija

If this man they hate so much, could nominate and
support the likes of Aregbesola, Fashola, Fayemi,
Oshiomole,Amosu and more recently Buhari and
compare this effort to a group who is championing
the cause of Fayose, Daniel, Kasamu, Gej and Jimi,
then I need not be told that something is completely
wrong with some people in Nigeria and that
explains why mediocre, hypocrites and impunity
strive in the entire systems.Take a deep and sincere
look at Nigeria and tell whether in the past six years
we have made progress or not?

You need 40 days dry fasting urgently before your situation gets out of hand. Please meet me in winners chapel for details.

@ the topic, that's what you get in any any Association of Past Criminals

with which population of the yorubas are they going to win?
When igbos are 52-57% of the total population of lagos.
Other non-indegenes 15%.
You see why APC can not win lagos again?

Good.

Nigerians are not that gullible as APC and Tinubu think.

We reject to enter the "one chance" bus The Biggest Landlord in Sub-Saharan Africa is positioning for us.

You can help elevate Lagos to a Dubai of Africa by conscientiously casting your vote for Joseph Olujimi Agbaje.

Make a statement now that you have the chance so that posterity will justify you.

Shun self-defeating primordial sentiments.

Fear of Jimi Agbaje is the beginning of wisdom for Ambode n Thief-nubu
Not up to 15,000 Lagosians. Attended the so called Thief-nubu 1 million March rally yesterday....Theif-nubu can't keep deceiving Lagosians while he keep milking the State Treasury dry.
What has light(fasting) got to do with darkness (thief-nubu)
God is with Jimi Agabje
Jimi Agbaje next Governor of Lagos State Godwin
Jimi Agbaje Godwin
Sai Jimi Agbaje the Liberator of Lagos From the Shackles of Thief-nubu evil machinations.
