That is how JK the NOT OK man has been running his campaign.
You can see the divide and rule tactics from inception.

I strongly doubt that th Oba said all those thing the media claim. Going by PDP's campaign in Lagos, it is easy to see that the speech released is just a consolidation of the propaganda they initiated

It is so sad to see that many smart people are falling for this.

If people are unhappy with APC, it should be the Nigerians in Lagos against APC. Agaje and his sponsors should not be running their mouth that it is Ndigbo against APC.

Also Agbaje's campaign to Ndigbo and other non-indigenous residents should be what he is going to do for Lagosians and not pitching them against their host.

The divisive approach will not work. And after this weekend when Agbaje is rejected, he will leave behind sore feelings. If he has any plan he should be campaigning on it and leave clannish agenda. Afterall he claim to be more Lagos than everyone else.

egift:


The reason for this thread is that instead of Agbaje to canvas for votes from every Lagosian, he is busy pitch non-indegens against their host. Do you know he even asked my people not to go home for Easter so they can vote for him. Also he campaign with the name of the people of Niger Delta, even to the point of siding with Militants to sabotage the economy if Jonathan loses.

Between Igbo and Oba of Lagos! So you people want to fight the Oba in his land? Hmmmmmmmm let us see the end.

Texcoco:
Agbaje collaborating with TAN is as a result of the greater working relationship both have formed during the presidential campaign,we don't see how it shouldn't continue even now it is the gubers.If the Oba isn't happy,he should go and call Buhari to help sell Ambode to the hausas instead of instigating the destruction of Lagos...Because this here is no different to Asari and Buhari's "dogs and baboons"...Worse come to worse igbos and yorubas will die because no igbo reads Oba's bombshell and won't vote Agbaje,let the game begin.

dunkem21:


I remember vividly, Ambode campaigning and 'shutting down' Alaba Int'l market wooing Igbo voters.

Both parties have worked tirelessly canvassing votes from eligible lagosians and I don't really see the need for this fuss.

Lastly, I don't believe you are Igbo! ..stop fanning the embers of tribalism.

TheOnlyWiseMan:

Igbo votes alone cannot elect a governor in Lagos, but any candidate Igbos vote enmass wins the race.

Arch1:
Jimi Agbaje's propaganda machinery also claimed the Oba Rilwan Akiolu said that ''the ibos in Lagos would be killed and thrown into the Lagoon if they do not vote for APC''

i can say it authoritatively that the Olowo Eko, albeit a supporter of APC , did not issue such threat against the ibos.

Agbaje's divisive campaign will cost him this election, he will fail woefully.

adebisicutie:


There is nothing wrong with canvassing for votes of all party but that flier is trying to incite the Igbos

TheOnlyWiseMan:

Egift my friend, please talk about your state, Enugu, leave lagos politics for Lagosians.
Do you think Igbo/Lagosians are fools? After giving them their greatest humiliation by way of deportation, you expect them to jump at anything APC. Whether you like it or not, I expect you admit that APC shot themselves on the foot by taking Igbos for granted. For sure, Igbo votes alone cannot elect a governor in Lagos, but any candidate Igbos vote enmass wins the race.
That's your frustrations.

dunkem21:


Yeah, wrong.

What do you think of the Oba's message?

egift:


You keep missing the point. If TAN is working for Agbaje, it should be about mobilizing votes from Lagos for him. It should not be limited to pitch Ndigbo against his opponents. Even APGA candidate stepped down for Ambode.

So where Agbaje is heading with his efforts to make Ndigbo an appendage of his Governorship Ambition is what I can't see. If what Agbaje is doing is not checked, tomorrow if he failed it will amount to Ndigbo failing - when in reality, Ndigbo have no stake in him than being a mere candidate for Governorship Election.

Texcoco:
The founder of TAN is an igbo man,his constituents and major support base are the igbos and the TAN man is aligned with the PDP which coincidentally Agbaje picked his governorship ticket from.Agbaje with Ambode are desperate for igbo votes and if his close working relationship with Ubah is yielding dividends who says what he is doing is wrong?? Afterall Ambode took Osinbade to Alaba recently and nobody raised dust...The igbos have not always concerned themselves with politics in Lagos but with this outburst from Akiolu then it will be safe to say that not only are they angry but are have become mightily interested and Ambode can kiss the few igbos in his votes goodbye after the almost titanic hardwork courting them...Because let us face it,igbos are stubborn and they will vote Agbaje/PDP maybe not to win but to prove a point.

And how far did that take GEJ in the last presidential elections?

egift:


@Bold

... With Agbaje's efforts strategy towards Ndigbo in this race, if nothing is done, his winning or losing becomes the Status of Ndigbo from the election.

Both Ambode and Agbaje should canvas for votes from all Lagosians (Yoruba, Hausa, Fulani, Igbo, Efik, Ibibio, Nupe, etc). Agbaje must desist from making one ethnic group vs others. That is my point.

TheOnlyWiseMan:
We're talking about Lagos here.

WisdomFlakes:


And when Ambode wins, even without Igbo votes, how would you then feel if he choses to become vindictive towards Lagos igbos for not voting for him? Just take it easy with your venom, coz if you live in a glass-house don't throw stones.

egift:


@Bold
So am now an Outcast for not supporting that Agbaje's ambition should become an Igbo agenda.

Here is the point I will like you to note: Any of the candidates failing should be in NO way be the failure of Ndigbo. With Agbaje's efforts strategy towards Ndigbo in this race, if nothing is done, his winning or losing becomes the Status of Ndigbo from the election.

Both Ambode and Agbaje should canvas for votes from all Lagosians (Yoruba, Hausa, Fulani, Igbo, Efik, Ibibio, Nupe, etc). Agbaje must desist from making one ethnic group vs others. That is my point.

docsholz:
I hope for their own sake agbaje wins

WisdomFlakes:


So you are telling me igbos love Agbaje more than GEJ? That they will do what they couldn't do for GEJ for Agbaje? Yeah, sure.

Texcoco:
Most of the igbo populated areas in Lagos are under severe neglect after APC elitist policies these past years,what can Ambode do but continue the same neglect and igbos will still thrive.The only other thing Ambode can do is close markets and businesses,but we all know that is like placing an embargo on yourself,no money for Lagos treasury.increase tax,we increase cost of goods and standard of living,who suffers??....we can go on and on...The least Ambode can do right now is damage control -we saw him feature Flavour in one of his TV adverts-but after Akiolu's outburst,we are afraid that ship has since sailed.

lurther:
Did anyone call u an outcast. Please, the way u are spiking up hatred against igbos has given you out. Kai! Why must you claim igbo and u want to turn other tribes violently against your igbo brothers? Which part of igboland are you from?

Even if every single igbo resident in Lagos with a voters card votes for him he will still lose to Ambode. Truth is he shouldn't have come out acting as though they are enough to get him into Alausa, going as far as begging them not to go to the east for Easter. Such insensitivity and lack of tact is enough to rub off wrongly on other Lagosians.

The last presidential elections has shown that ss/se votes alone are inadequate to win important elections in Nigeria.
