Afamed:

What clout did Ambode get before same Agbaje was humbled 3yrs ago?

Bro! Its apparent you are new to Lagos or perhaps you didn't follow the elections in 2015. It was keenly contested and there was heavy rigging in places like Oshodi, Agege and even festac.

With what has happened in APC in the past few days Agbaje stands a bright chance in the polls.

ebenco2000:
Ambode is neither , he is a governor of himself, his family members and friends. Many of you dont live in Lagos, you just come here to make nonsense comment, Ambode is behaving as if he is from opposition, abandoned all the projects started by Fashola, refused to pay contractors that worked for Fashola, wasting tax payers money on white elephant projects, roads are bad, canals are over flowing , hospitals dont get enough funding, schools are abandoned, . Fashola built 11 general hospitals when he was governor, built and renovated many schools, Ambode has done none since he got there only awarding big contracts to his friends and family members. He should go Lagosians dont want him again. If APC should make the mistake of giving him second chance, we will vote him out . He is a bad market that's why they don't want to field him.

You are a big LIAR, a FAT one at that.
I live in LAGOS and I can mention several project he initiated and completed, numerous projects. I will list them here for all to see.
1) The LASUTH hospital ikeja.
Ambode remodernised the hospital, created a packing lot, completed the surgery center started by Fashola, built gardens by road side from under the bridge to lagos state high court.
2) He remodernised the bridges in Ikeja and almost all roundabouts in Lagos was builtified by this man.
3) He lighted up all the roads in Lagos, all majors roads in Lagos.
4) He's the only governor who has touched inner roads in Lagos.
5) Security in Lagos is almost to been perfect.
6) Modernised all government schools in the state.
7) Created new jobs for lagosians.
This man gave Lagos a new FACE

All of these and so many more he is doing. I do not see how is the governor for his family and friends, there is no story of him appointing his family and friends in public offices. What is his crime?

Prior to now he was Tinubu's favorite and puppet. What has he done wrong? Where did he go wrong? Tinubu firms was known to be handling most of the contracts in the states. Why can't he let Ambode be the governor of the people? Why can't he be allowed to perform on people's mandate given to him?

This is totally and completely against DEMOCRACY. This is WRONG! There has never been anywhere an incumbent governor isn't allowed to go for a second term

My question is should Ambode be a governor of the people or be a governor for the party leaders and the elites? I don't understand.

We are clamoring for a government and democracy free from Godfatherism.

Ambode has set up a good structure in place to develop and take Lagos to a giant stride. APC must not allow dispute, arrogance and selfishness destroy their Party chances in the poll in 2019

Benekruku:





You know nothing about Lagos politics

Hahaha your myopic thinking still Jagaban is the Alpha in Lagos politics.

Anyways ask Obasanjo what happened to him in Ogun state, he still cannot believe it.

Looks like the National leaders of the party are fighting for Ambode's head....

In any case I want Ambode to lose the APC ticket so he becomes the 'omisore' for PDP in the next election.

2019 will be so interesting for Lagosians

Benekruku:



You must be one of the lots that believe Christ is still coming back to Earth to take them away

Believing Ambode will, or could win the primaries is an "IMPOSSIBLE" tense

And believing APC will win Lagos will be the biggest joke if Ambode looses APC ticket..

The same treatment Obasanjo got in Ogun state is coming to Tinubu and he will be served HOT HOT...

He will lose both the presidency and Lagos state at the same time. Not forgetting Osun state will be lost too

nokatakata:


He only shocked you bitter ipods. Ambode will ne kicked out and you ipods can beg him to come develop your sad beast like he did to lagos. Rubbish

Mumu ode.. Anyone that is against APC is an IPODS you no like IPADS ode.

I pretty sure you do not have a business or even a house in lagos and you are claiming Lagos my state. Ode buruku

kjhova:


Dear Andrew,

If indeed you would do exactly what Ambode just did, then you will most certainly end up like he is about to end... in failure.

"Mo'ja mo'sa ni a fi n'mo akinkoju..."

Know when to fight & know when to retreat is the hallmark of a great warrior...

Only a fool rushes headlong into an armoured battalion. Even Jesus advised against such and proposed that the weaker king sue for armistice long before a shooting war commences. How do you go guns blazing into a fight you cannot win?

For your info, all associations, cooperatives, political groups etc are behind Sanwo-Olu. The entire APC structure; 50+ LCDA heads, almost all Assembly members and even Ambode's own cabinet members are all behind Sanwo-Olu. The candidate of the Justice group, the 2nd biggest caucus in Lagos APC after Tinubu's Mandate group, Hamzat, has also backed down for Sanwo-Olu. Where is Ambode's hope? In God? I don't think so. You can ask the Chapel of Light priest he threw out.

If I were Ambode, I will step down from the primaries, support Sanwo-Olu and make amends with the party chiefs. Stay as Governor till May 2019 and do all possible to support the candidate. Then take the necessary appointment that will be available at the Federal level.

Launching a stupid roforofo fight will be my last option. Some things you guys called cowardice is actually great wisdom. As the saying goes, "It is the coward who survives the war to point out the grave of the brave who died at the warfront"!!

Boss

I can't believe your assertion on this issue, I really can't place my head and understand the point you are trying to make. My question is has Ambode being a bad governor, has he not performed in his first term, what and where did he go wrong? All the party leaders, LCDAs heads, and legislators are only against Ambode because of TINUBU. This is a shameless and visible godfatherism playing it's politics here.

As a warrior you cannot drown in your fear, you cannot be coward and not put up a fight. Ambode has shown that he's a warrior, he's not a chicken like many of us thought in 2015.

What would be said of Ambode if he steps down for Sanwu Olu so he can be compensated with a federal appointment? A total disgrace to himself, his family and lagosians at large. Both Ambode and the party are toying with the tail of snake with these brouhaha, the instability and imbalance in the party.

Trust me if Ambode loses out in the APC primary and he decamps the party, APC is loosing Lagos to an opposition party. It's very easy as it looks.

It's about Tinubu grip on Lagos be let loose. Ask Obasanjo how he lost Ogun state to APC.

Kennydoc:

He may lose the fight, but APC will hear from Lagos electorates. Buhari knows the damage it will do to his votes from Lagos and that's why he's supporting Ambo. Tinubu is in a big mess. If Ambode loses the ticket, Jimi Agbaje may just be on his way to becoming the next governor of Lagos. If Ambode wins, Tinubu will lose his grip on Lagos despite an APC government in power.

Dicey and interesting my brother

Lyoncrescent:
Few points to be clear about:

In 2015 tinubu imposed Ambode who was fired by fashola to be governor. It was okay then for ambode to be imposed and suddenly not okay for him to be disposed by the same people.

In the 2015 primaries, supo shasore and hamzat didn't throw personal insults on Ambode despite Ambode having tinubus backing. Hamzat at least has been in Lagos alausa politics when ambode was still in the local government

Sanwaolu has never in any of his utterances insulted Ambode. Kwam 1 and some party leaders like baba Eto and muiz banire have been critical of Ambode but not sanwaolu

What decent human being uses ones health condition to fault him on national TV. Even people sympathetic to ambode have said the press conference is a new low which clearly shows he's not a politician. In 2011, a bunch of protesters stormed alausa to protest against tinubu to support fashola second term. You know what fashola did ? He went live on LTV immediately and told all parties to calm down and He praised tinubu and the party structure and promised to align with the party. Mind you that almost half of the party structure supported fashola but he never turned on tinubu or the party while albode cannot even boast 10 percent of support from the party.Same fashola that didn't support Ambodes candidature and even fired Ambode from his cabinet campaigned vigorously for ambode simply because he understood the party is supreme. This Ambode is throwing the party under the bus

Ambode is blackmailing the party by saying in his press conference that the only way Buhari can win Lagos is if he remains as governorship candidate. Ambode or no ambode, I as a person will not vote Buhari. Buhari has been demystified and is not the enigma he once was. Fashola was imposed. Ambode was imposed. Now sanwaolu imposed. Nothing new even though it's wrong

All in all, i have always said , tinubu is powerful but not that powerful such that 99 percent of the party structure is against ambode. Even fashola and muiz banire that are against tinubu in a way are not supporting Ambode. This press conference is a new low but I still wish him and his advisers/supporters all the best

In case you missed it, read muiz banire who is the biggest critic of tinubu in lagos state his reasons why ambode doesnt deserve a second term

https://www.nairaland.com/4755448/muiz-banire-why-ambode-doesnt

What Ambode has done is exactly the same thing I would have done. Prior to this conference Ambode has tried to resolved all loose ends with Tinubu and other party chieftain, he has met with the national leaders of the party, and even met with the president to resolve the crises in the party but the Lagos big wigs are hell bent on embarrassing him out of office. Of course you don't expect him to go down without a fight.

what Ambode has done is the case of "Pikin wey say him mama no go sleep himself no go sleep". He is creating future damage for the party if in case he loses the party ticket and with Lagosians knowing this allegations against Sanwo Olu then he will be rest assured of loosing Lagos.

In my view Ambode did a smart thing that name calling and slandering this guy. Let's see who laughs last.

techstack:
The reason is that the core Lagosians believed that Ambode is not a true Lagosian

So they want core lasgidian

Is he from Ondo or Osun?

Singing Obe's "Sanya-olu chairman ajoku egbe"

Ode you are just knowing..

If he wasn't having clash with Tinubu would have said this? Ambode was the APC flagbearer in the 2015 general elections not one person said a word about where he was from.

Ambode must get the APC ticket else APC Lagos is a goner

Benekruku:
Ambode must really be a terrible personality

No single big wig in APC can publicly stand for with him

Lost support of all Federal Senators and Local Government Chairmen

He cant even break the party to factions

You are not seeing from the angle that he is not dancing to their tune and not having them control his government. To be honest I'm really impressed with what he has done. He was Tinubu's boy in 2015 election and today he has become his enemy. We all thought Ambode was going to be a stooge for Tinubu and his puppet but he did surprised and shocked everyone of us.

ollah2:



How come the same feat didn't happen again? Were Ekiti people replaced ?

Lol it's unfortunate your sense isn't directing you to the answer of the question you asked.

Anyways let me help you, the case is still in court.

ollah2:


Piles of bullshit. Why didn't you hate Nigeria when a worst thing happened in Ekiti during GEJ and Fayose tenure? Why are you crying like an infant now?

LOL it's PDP,JONATHAN's and FAYOSE fault that ekiti people vote for PDP in both states, national assembly and almost swept entire LCDAs in the state.

Get over what happened in 2014. Let's face what we have on the table now......

RealTrump:
There was a mere 7 polling unit for that election.

What stopped the following guys from supervising each of those polling units?
1. Saraki
2. Wike
3. Atiku
4. Fayose
5. David Mark
6. Tambuwal
7. Secondus

PDP r not ready to rule, APC had 13 Governors on ground for that election but PDP were forming boss.

They r only good at crying foul. I guess that's where the name "Wailers" came from.

SMH! You expect PDP governors who had jobs in their respective states to fly in to OSUN because an election is going on. Where is the sense in your comment. This should be an election not a power tussle or anything. Shouldn't the people be the ones who determines the outcome of an election and not the external forces and influences of governors. GOD! Who swear for you?

APC brought an army of governors to RIG an election you are shamelessly appraising them.There is a problem if we are going to live with people like you in this country.

emmabest2000:
No RIP For someone who take her own life


In every difficulty circumstances remember to pray

The level of insensitivity in your comment should be on infinity.

Depression is fucking REAL, like madly and stupidly real.

Pray you don't get to that point of wanting to take your life consciously or unconsciously. Man wetin man dey go thru for this life if dem tell you finish you will be amazed.

Hotfreeze:


Which stolen mandate? My friend stop talking nonsense. When INEC declared Adeleke winner over APC in the senatorial elections, there was no stolen mandate?

PDP lost, you can go to hell if you like.

What rubbish are you saying?
Adeleke won his senatorial seat duly no rigging and in fact with a landslide victory.. It's unfortunate that you are yet to get over that election.

How can you in your sane mind say PDP lost? This is a clear case of rigging and result manipulation! How can PDP who recorded over 40% of votes in all local government is struggling to get 5% votes in the re-run. There is a lot that's going wrong with this country.

Because it's PDP this shouldn't be celebrated. This is RIGGING and stealing the people's mandate from PDP. This precedence APC is setting will set Nigeria on a dangerous path we need to thread carefully.

If us the electorate can appraise apc for completely destroying our democracy just because PDP did theirs in the popular '16 years rule' then we as a nation and citizens are in big and serious trouble.

PDP did wrong does not give APC the prerogative, right to do same. This is not about APC or PDP its about a nation of over 150 million people. Come on people we should know better already.

PDP as a party rigged election and those elections were annuled by the court. This APC party do not look like a party that respects rule of law and justice.

Its quite unfortunate that @ 2018 a nation like Nigeria cannot have a complete fair,free and an election that can be trusted.

It's a big shame.

He's not the only person sleeping. The 2 idiots besides him are sleeping too. God why Africans things dey always different.

But really joining forces with Omisore is actually neccessary and very redundant at this point.

They should stop making him feel like the wanted bride. This is a re-run election which he will not be participating in, he isn't campaigning for votes for the thursday election so why all these visits to him.

The people knows who they are going to vote regardless who Omisore supports.

somez:
I have always liked Dankwambo even though I know he won't win the election.

If you like him I implore you give him your vote. As it stands its the best man at the moment. I'm not a fan of Northern Oligarchy but Dankwambo looks better than all the rest

Yorubas are finally having their own stronghold party

Anyone who knows WIKE knows this is a BIG BIG BIG LIE.

WIKE could be anything but one thing I know is that he is NOT a fan of APC and BUHARI. WIKE has openly about his displeasure about SARAKI, TAMBUWAL, ATIKU & KWAKWANSO defecting back to the PDP. His candidate for the PDP TICKET is DANKWAMBO.

Remember weeks ago there was a report where he said some aspirant were working for BUHARI & APC to destablize the party so what they are trying to do is damage redress.

Nigga not all yabatech students are touts. He better paraphrase whatever he meant to say.

Truly there are cultist & Touts amongst us but we have many reasonable students here. He was in our school sometime last year and he had a fantastic show. It's just unfortunate that this happened

He dare not name then.......

Same defectors who helped, campaigned thru out the entire states to win votes for him in that election are weak politicians? Whatever buhari is smoking should really be scrutinized & burnt. He's definitely smoking an expensive one..

Africans never learn. African needs to take a cue and lesson from Sri Lanka & Jamaica.

Because of Sril Lanka couldn't service their loans they lost their major port to china while China helps to build roads in Jamaica along their coastal areas and each coastal areas the roads touch belongs to them hence they make a lot of money from Jamaica's tourism.

Who knows the details of this loans Buhari is always getting from China. I hope it doesn't enslaves us in the long run

This guy just dey allow game enter him head. Flying color upanddan.

See wetin wizkid cause......... I no go blame am

Butterflyleo:
Saraki visited Russia and a month later a shipload of illegal arms from Russia headed to Nigeria was intercepted in South Africa.

Saraki visited Edwin Clark and 2 weeks later unauthorized police personnel conduct a raid on Edwin Clarke's residence and the unauthorized policemen have since been arrested.

Now saraki comes to shout foul and accuse the FG of what they did not authorize.

Saraki is still a learner when it comes to causing confusion and creating fake scenarios.

His hand is all over the Edwin clarke raid.

The people are not fooled.

Hahaha you will never get tired of blaming saraki.
Let me help you complete the blames. Saraki visited Trump 2 weeks later there was a report that Trump called Buhari the most lifeless person he ever met.

Saraki spent dollars in a mall in Dubai 5 days after the naira catapulted against the dollar.
Saraki bought fuel in his new range over 7 dats after Buhari felt it right to increase the fuel pump price.
Saraki hailed the nigerian economy it took only 4 days before it went into recession.
Saraki visited Buhari in Aso Rock gave him a handshake 3 weeks after Buhari collapsed and was rush to a hospital in London.

How much more can you blame Saraki for this country's travails. I tire for una.........
