Ambode Accepted Defeat To Avert Impeachment –Sources Reveals
There were indications on Wednesday that the Lagos State Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode , conceded victory to Babajide Sanwo-Olu , his main opponent for the All Progressives Congress governorship ticket in Lagos , to calm frayed nerves and avert impeachment.
There had been speculation that the governor would fight the declaration of Sanwo-Olu as the winner of the state’s Tuesday governorship primary, which was initially canceled by the APC National Working Committee panel that had promised to announce a new date for the primary.
The panel made a U-turn on Wednesday to declare Sanwo-Olu the winner, sparking speculations that the governor would reject the move.
A few hours after the panel’s new decision, the governor’s media team sent a press statement that the governor would host a “world press briefing” by 2.pm, causing more speculations.
According to one of Punch, Newspaper correspondent gathered through sources in both Ambode and Asiwaju Bola Tinubu’s camps that the move was meant to remove the tension, as well as avert the impeachment move being considered by party elders.
One of the sources said before and after the broadcast, Ambode had contacted Tinubu and some party leaders in a bid to assure them of his loyalty to the party, and in order to avert the impeachment option.
