The Inspector General of Police, IGP Suleiman Abba has been petitioned by the Lagos state APC Integrity Group calling for the immediate arrest and prosecution of a governorship aspirant of the party, Mr Akinwunmi Ambode for committing perjury in his INEC form and his JAMB form.



The group in its petition, an electronic copy of which was mailed to iReports-ng.com, stated that “We have just discovered that one of the 13 governorship aspirants of our great party, the APC, in Lagos, Mr Akinwunmi Ambode recently submitted Expression of Interest form wherein he lied under oath that he is an indigene of Lagos state. We wish to draw your attention sir to the fact that the same person had in his JAMB admission form in 1981 also filled his state of origin to be Ondo state. You may also wish to know sir that Mr Ambode had in his application form number JAMB/DE.03 and registration number 646789 filled in his own handwriting that he is an indigene of Ondo state in the portion of the form which asks his state of origin.

“Attempts in recent times by Mr Ambode to claim Epe as his town have been severally rebuffed by leaders of the town. Hence our request to you to use your good office to investigate this obvious case of perjury. Attached herewith are copies of the two forms where the suspect committed the crime for your records, perusal and immediate action.”
