The Executive Governor of Lagos State, Akinwunmi Ambode, may not have started his official assignment on a very friendly note with the immediate past governor of the State, Mr. Babatunde Raji Fashola (SAN) as many of the loyalists of the former governor have just been relieved of their various positions.
According to our reliable source, who pleaded anonymous, Governor Akinwunmi Ambode sacked many of them the in his first day at work and he is even determined to send many others packing. This development has prompted many to wonder if the new governor is using this to settle a score with former Gov. Fashola. Governor Ambode revealed this sad news to the affected people in a meeting he had with all directors of Lagos State Agencies.
One of those unlucky people that have fallen victims of this action of Gov. Akinwunmi Ambode is Ms. Ronke Azeez. Ronke Azeez was the coordinator of ‘Lagos Eko Project’. ‘Lagos Eko Project’ is a World Bank Assisted Project on Education in Lagos State. Ronke is adjudged by many, particularly by her employer, Babatunde Raji Fashola, very brilliant and innovative. Our source revealed that Gov. Ambode just asked the lady to handover to the next person to her without giving any reason.
On a similar note, another person that has also been relieved of her position by Gov. Ambode is Adenike Adekanbi. Adenike Adekanbi is another innovative woman who has been the one in charge of Lagos State Facility Management Agency. From the investigation carried out by Naijahottestgist, we gathered that it was Deji Williams, Personal Assistant to Gov. Ambode, that had actually written the proposal that led to the birth of the agency during the administration of Babatunde Raji Fashola.
Furthermore, it was revealed that Mr. Fashola realised that the proposal made so much sense, and handed it over to a commissioner (name withheld) for execution. It was this commissioner, due to his extra-marital affair with Adenike Adekanbi, who brought her (Adenike Adekanbi) into the picture. Unfortunately for her, the new governor of Lagos State, Akinwunmi Ambode was quoted to have said to her “I know everything that has been going on, handover to the next person to you.”
Mr. Gbenga Akintola, Chairman of Lagos State Public Works Corporation (LSPWC) is another loyalist of Mr. Babatunde Raji Fashola that Gov. Ambode has decided to send packing from LSPWC. Gbenga Akintola was actually residing in the United States before. Our source revealed that his emergence as the Chairman of LSPWC was facilitated by his closeness to Prof. Wole Soyinka and Demola Azeez (Raji Fashola’s best friend). Indeed, we reliably gathered that after Gov. Ambode has asked Gbenga Akintola to handover to the next person to him at LSPWC, he eventually walked him out of the meetingThe last but not the least of those vital positions occupied by the loyalists of the former Lagos State Governor, Raji Fashola, and which Gov. Ambode has decided change their leadership is Lagos State Residents Registration Agency (LASRRA). This time, the victim is not just the loyalist of Raji Fashola, it is his younger sister, Ms. Yinka Fashola. Our reliable source revealed that Gov. Ambode has relieved the younger sister of Babatunde Fashola of her position as the General Manager of LASRRA. He instructed her to handover everything in her care as General Manager to the next person to her in the agency.
Without doubt, many would begin to wonder why Gov. Ambode actually went after loyalists of his predecessor in his first week in office, knowing full well that Babatunde Raji Fashola was one of those few people who have aided the victory of Gov. Akinwunmi Ambode in the last Lagos State Gubernatorial election. Is this a good start for Gov. Ambode?

hmm

All for change..... Hmmmmm

hmmmmm

If this turns out to be true, then Ambode is preparing himself for failure.

I have said it time without numbers that Ambode is coming to milk Lagos dry on behalf of Theif-nubu....he is just acting on the script thief-nubu has written for him
Fashola refused to do some of thief-nubu biddings that's why Fashola succeeded unlike colossal failure called Aregbeshola who is acting all the script wtitten by Thief-nubu.. Ambode will fail woefully like Aregbeshola all in the aim of satisfying thief-nubu...

Lagos State Residents Registration Agency (LASRRA) headed by Fashola's younger sister has been indicted for fraud, a lot has been expose about her even on nairaland so clearly Ambode is getting rid of the bad eggs who were shielded by Fashola. That's a smart move

if this is true then let him continue but if he becomes a pawn in the hands of Tinubu and Oba Akiolu, then he should kiss the govt. house goodbye by 2019.

Gov Ambode, I hope u are on track?

Imagine Fashola giving his sister that position, that's outright nepotism . No wonder he couldn't hold her accountable and the best thing for Ambode is to remove her because if he queries her they will still say it's an attack on Fashola. How much was her budget, how many resident cards have been distributed The other man put his Baby mama Adenike and you expect Ambode to watch them turn Alausa to family business.

Brave move by Ambode

Wise Word

Every new government has the right to chose the people that can work with him. Nothing says he must retain everyone previous administration especially those he views as not competent .This happens all over the world, nothing new. This is change, fresh blood. Plus most of those sound like products of man know man they should stop trying to whip up sentiments

Those who did a good job will keep their positions I'm sure

Tinubu(Ambode) is actually purging the system to pave way for other loyalists to benefit. I can't fault Ambode because it is his constitutional power to fire and hire officials of his administration at his own disposal.

Ambo ohhhhhh ambo.

Eko......



Don't speak the language but love that song.
