As credible as Gov Ambode, he lost. Election in Nigeria isn't won by credibility. It's won by the most sophisticated rigger.
Ambode lost because he lost the support of the power that brought him to power.
APC is the government of the godfather by the godfather and for the godfather.
If you know you know.

Something tells me Sanwo-Olu could still step down for Ambode,the runner up in the primary,after APC ''family'' meeting.

In politics, anything can happen.

I sincerely appreciate Gov Ambode for accepting defeat Am so proud of him.

Atleast in the next 8months he can freely govern Lagos as Independent person ,he also now know all fake people around him.

And Bola Tinubu and his 40 gang of thieves will no longer call his phone line for any favour or influence him.

He tactically accept defeat to enjoy he remaining tenure, he can't be poor again for life.
governed freely ke, he can still be impeached if he does anyhow because he has no one except his wife supporting him... This period is going to be his most trying period as governor because almost every one wouldn't respect him or take him serious since he has been stripped naked

I hope you're able to see clearly that Tinubu has reached his political peak in Nigeria, I mean he will never be president of this country, that's if he has such ambition. This situation is pointer to the fact that if made president he will be too powerful and would desire to replicate his lagos strong grip at the national level. This will not be tolerated coz it's a different ball-game in Abuja.

With this, Tinubu has definitely confirmed some people's suspicion and they'll keep an eye on him. The movie is not finished yet.

Mark today's date, bookmark this page and keep watching how Tinubu will be dressed down in the coming months. cool

Your sense is just too much well-done sir. Well! all I know is that Tinubu is number one political genius in Nigeria today he silence and made OBJ irrelevant in Lagos politics and even in Nigeria as a whole many are still learning from him twale jagaban of African

Go and study history, my friend. Since Independence, this is the first time the Yorubas will genuinely be on the winning side. Even in 1999, most of the SW supported Olu Falaye against Obasanjo.Tinubu was on the losing side, though I must admit that he is a great politician.

The North that has held all of us to political, religious and regional ransome, has not even come out to make such a claim. There is no doubt that the SW played the most important roles in the emergence of APC and Buhari, but that does not give the SW a bragging right.

The reason it all played out in favour of the Southwest was PDP and Jonathan factors. The entire North, party notwithstanding, wanted power to rightfully return to the North. APC represented that desire. SE and SS, were already irredeemably enmeshed in PDP and GEJ candidacy. That singular fact, created a conducive platform for SW and the entire North to work together. Excellent, if you ask me.

As great as the outcome of 2015 election may seem to the SW, the entire South has just wittingly or otherwise, played into the hands of the North. Almost all the Northern PDP stalwarts that left before 2015, have come back to PDP to continue the pursuit of their Northern agenda. They achieved their aim.....power to the North. While we in the South are busy sabotaging ourselves and calling it politics. Only Buhari could have uprooted PDP and the entire North knew it. They used him to achieve that.

We in the South, need to stop playing into their hands. We need to stay united and get the MB on board. Then can we truly stop the onslaught by the core North. If we continue to brag individually as SW, SE and SS, instead of a united South, we will continue in servitude to the North. An injustice to anyone of us, should be seen as an injustice to all of us by the entire South.

The same Tinubu that that has no influence outside lagos
The same Tinubu that is gradually losing his influence in the southwest....
Oga you afonjas can continue to be slaves to him cos it has always bin in your nature
The juju he gave u ppl must be So powerful
Am sure if Tinubu asks to knack your wife ,you will gladly give her to him
But dont u ever,not even in ur wildest dream infer that your useless Tinubu wud ever be influencial whatsover outside the yorubas in lagos ,how much more Nigeria at large.

After reading most comments on this page, it is reinforced that we are heading nowhere as a nation and we youths will always be in the back seat. We lament about bad leaders and we had Ambode who worked. Despite his own flaws, he did a very good job working and keeping the political vultures away. We now have someone who works and the same youths lamenting about bad leaders are glorifying Tinubu and writing off Ambode simply because he refused to do one man's bidding (which is the right thing). Make una no worry. You all just get ready for all of us to grind our teeth together cos i can guarantee you that with what i am seeing here, this country will never ever get better. Not in our lifetime.

Throwback:
Despite my preference for Ambode to continue with a 2nd term, a direct primary of a political party cannot be faulted as imposition.

Good sportsmanship exhibited by conceding defeat.

It is now left to see if APC's democratic denial of Ambode would be supported by the general Lagos electorate, and if an unknown APC candidate would be able to defeat other political parties, being an open contest without any incumbency.
You are still dreaming. Osun state has not taught you a lesson. You just cant take Lagos state from APC. It didnt happen during the $$ dollar jamboree na now wey PDP is as broke as f@#k that they want to win.

Akinwunmi Ambode, governor of Lagos state, has publicly spoken for the first time since he lost the governorship primary election of the the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Ambode just ended his live press conference which was scheduled for 2:30pm, today.

Ambode who was defeated in yesterday's primary election, thanked Lagosians and party members, congratulated Babajide Sanwo-Olu and promised to work with him to move the state forward.

Babajide Sanwo-Olu, a former commissioner in the state, beat the governor to the 2019 ticket.

Sanwo-Olu was backed by influential party leaders in the state, including Bola Tinubu, a former governor of the state.

Sanwo-Olu polled 970,851 votes while the governor had 72,901 votes.
