Don't distort facts or history...Koro won the Chairmanship Election during Abacha's transition programme under the platform of GDM (Grassroot democratic movement). That was the era where we had the 5 party system in place. Koro's emergence as the Chairman of Lagos Island Local Government could be likened to the case of Sir Michael Otedola winning the Gubernatorial elections in 1993 due to the rift in SDP between Femi Agbalajobi and Chief Dapo Sarunmi. The major party then was UNDP and the party was split between Luqman Ajose and Jide Damazio, Koro only became Chairman due to the rift and intra party crisis in UNDP. Koro was used as a spoiler by Luqman Ajose because he lost the primaries to Jide Damazio. Luqman Ajose subsequently emerged as the flag bearer for AD in 1999 and became the chairman of the Local government in 1999, though he was impeached later. |
