Crisis in Lagos APC as stalwarts set to stall Ambode’s second term!
…How Ambode begins moves to set his own structure

As the 2019 general elections beckon fast, many of the principal players have begun to draw their plans to take the shine off one another.
This is a situation that is spreading like wild fire across the nation nay other parties. The Centre of Excellence State, Lagos, is not an exception, even with the wide popularity of its undoubtedly performing governor, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode. Of course, no one can feign the touted idea in all quarters of the state, that a second term is sure for the Epe-born, accountant-cum-civil servant turned politician by his godfather, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who single handed foisted him on the state and the Lagosians as the successor to the immediate past governor, Babatunde Raji Fashola, SAN. Feelers are now emerging from certain stalwarts within the Lagos chapter of the All Progressives Party, APC that it will no longer be business as usual. Their grouse is allegedly based on some actions and inactions being laid at the doorsteps of Governor Ambode. Another trite claim by these stalwarts and some party members is that, he had not carried them along since he sailed into power, adding that he was just busy doing the business of governance, as if it was not the collective efforts of members that put him in office in the first place; forget about his godfather at Bourdillon. Now that the 2019 election is fast approaching and his second term very much dear to him, he now believes he will need them once again to scale through to the Alausa Glass House for a second term. To many pundits, the claims of these members within the party are enough to lend credence to the fact that, Ambode was not a well-grounded politician, before providence and godfatherism shone on him to become the governor; just like the case of former governor Fashola, who is now the Minister of Power, Works and Housing. It is a known fact that in politics, when you are tossed into office as a political office holder, you must as a matter of unwritten policy carry along those who rallied round you to emerge victorious. This in the coming dispensation may turn out to be Ambode’s albatross, if all arithmetic, math and permutations of politics are brought to bear; because Ambode alone cannot do the job of mobilizing people during electioneering; and this is where these set of concerned members are waiting in the wings for the Governor when the cookie begins to crumble. But in the same development, Governor Ambode, sensing a likely disenchantment from these members when the time comes for him to solicit their support, he has allegedly been grooming and subtly building his own structure from within the same party, to circumvent the anticipated plans of these members should they want to vent their spleen on him. But, political observers believe that Ambode is not that politically sagacious enough to match that of the aggrieved members, who know the game better than him, come rain or shine. ...

Ambode left many with the impresssion that he is a tribalist.

The way he came to power and the laws.

I really hope we are mistaking, if not he is a very sad excuse of a man.

You're a wawa miscreant and you potopoto Jews didn't vote Ambode. You all insulted Yorubas, cursed us and voted Jimi Agbaje to spite us.

Ambode is not a tribalist. If I were Ambode, I'll pass a law that all you flatheaded clowns coming into Lagos must disembark at Berger and let butchers give you Yoruba tribal marks before being allowed to enter Lagos.

All these beer parlour write-ups laced with childish conjectures, weak sources, and incredibly sour outlook. Ambode may have disappointed Lagosians with some poor decision making, Yet, PDP or any other party or factions are dead in the general scheme of things. Mind you, money rules things and a loyalty to your godfather. This is Nigeria oh
