Even if it going to be 1 vote APC will win PDP especially with this tribal print that Igbo introduced into the election. U can come from Abia and be telling someone that their forefather has bn there for millennia as no man's land. It is a slap on real Lagosian and some Yoruba people

The OP clearly states “some” and not his whole legacy.

There’s hardly any facet of public life that Ambode has not positively affected (including building upon Fashola’s foundations), from renovating/upgrading public schools, supporting SMSEs through the Employment Trust Fund, the Code Lagos project that is training about 1 million Lagosians, the work training programs of RSW supported by the private sector, artisanal training, the building of several new jetties and dredging/developing proper ferry routes, the home ownership Lagos HOMS scheme, training/recruitment of new graduate teachers, empowering disabled Lagosians through the Lagos Disability Fund and providing employment for qualified ones, as well as ensuring that all the BRT and the new high-capacity buses are wheelchair accessible as are all the new pedestrian bridges, upgrading/equipping primary health care centers and Ayinke House/LASUTH, the Light Industrial Park in Ikorodu and the Imota Rice Mill, the 450 inner roads across all 57 LCDAs, the first-rate Lagos Emergency Response Unit (ERU), the computerized GIS, the computerized vehicle testing services, the forensic testing center, the new Onikan Arena and the JK Randle Center, the Airport Expressway (which really should be the responsibility of the federal government), the game-changing Oshodi Interchange, the new terminals at Oyingbo, Ikeja and Yaba, new parks/gardens across the city, and so many more.

Nigeria will remain deservedly underdeveloped unless we quit rewarding failure and punishing success (however relative). SMDH

2nd term because of flyover?

jayson87:
As far as i am concerned Ambode is better than Fashola + Bola + Sanwoolu

maasoap:
Of course, we all knew that he lost on Facebook.

An analyst on a program on Raypower FM radio, Abuja said that for a Politician, losing an election is worse than losing a child.

Atiku should be placed under close watch by his family, he may be contemplating suicide. He was so sure about his chances of getting the coveted seat, he's finding it difficult to accept the current reality of an unexpected defeat!

ionsman:
I'm damn sure this man cries to bed every night. Kai...

Dem do you MMM.

Banmeallday:
These people think they are smart. They know they have and continue to wrong Igbo/Biafrans, but then turn around and stroke the Igbo ego LOL....

ANother 4 years and Igbo will still be politically and psychologically homeless (especially Igbo of Lagos LOL)

baliyubla:
Guessing the former IGP proceeded on leave before his retirement in January.

Buhari the bigot just couldn’t wait till June for the mans tenure to expire, unlike the former IGP who remained in office till the last second.

MadeInTokyo:

Next level things

Emiefiele the fool was busy opening CBN vault and releasing billions of Naira to APC chieftains a day before the Presidential elections, not knowing two weeks later the cabal will sack him

An abooki man will be appointed as CBN Governor quote me

Amaechi and others will be sacked also in the coming weeks, Tinubu and oshiomole will be dumped also like after 2015 election.

The cabal will consolidate their grip to power ahead of 2023...Osibanjo should also watch his back

REVEALED: How CBN emptied its vaults like Abacha’s days to finance Jonathan’s campaign


The Central bank has been accused of emptying its vaults to finance 2015 general election According to reports, Mr Emefiele, who is also chairman of the board, told them that the money will be used for the military fight against Boko Haram.

He was said to have been cautioned but he rejected the advice. According to reports, this happened shortly after he had secured approval from President Goodluck Jonathan to disburse the funds. However, questions have been raised on how CBN created the security fund overnight to meet NSA’s requests. “What the CBN did was to create an intervention fund, which it is empowered to do by the CBN Act.

That is why we have aviation intervention fund, agriculture intervention fund, all sorts, which are now being abused to take money out of the system,” one of the sources said. A former minister told TheCable that it is illegal for the CBN to pay raw dollars to any government agency. READ ALSO: Anxiety mounts in Aso Rock over Buhari's health He said: “If the money was given to the NSA in naira, this would be a case of the CBN printing money for the government and adding to pressure on prices and exchange rates. I was told a lot of this happened in many instances and did a lot of damage to the economy

If, on the other hand, as it is being alleged in this case, the NSA was given this money in cash forex, then a strong case can be made for criminal activity by the CBN itself. In giving so much cash, the CBN is itself involved in money laundering. And by taking it from the central bank vaults, the management of the central bank has effectively taken foreign exchange from CBN reserves and given same to the NSA with no questions asked.” How it happened, according to CBN insiders, “was that the money was taken directly from CBN vaults without any account being credited. It effectively did not go through the due process. The accountant-general did not sign off as it is the practice.

“Money was just moved directly like it happened under Gen. Sani Abacha when large amounts were taken out of the CBN under the guise of financing ECOMOG, the West African peace-keeping force. We know where the bulk ended up.” The source also gave an instance of money taken out of the CBN. According to the source, in February 2015 shortly after the postponement of the presidential elections, the CBN took almost $300 million on the instructions of the National Petroleum Investment Management Services (NAPIMS) and passed it to the National Intelligence Agency (NIA).

NAPIMS is a corporate services unit in the exploration and production directorate of the NNPC charged with managing government’s investment in the upstream sector of the oil and gas industry. NIA is Nigeria’s equivalent of the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), which deals with foreign intelligence. Legit.ng also reported that former President, Goodluck Jonathan has again been indicted in the on-going controversial ‘ghost fund’ retrieved, on Wednesday April 12 from an apartment in Ikoyi by the operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). A retired employee of the NIA, Ibrahim Ibrahim on Thursday April 20 said that the N15 billion seized by EFCC was part of the monies channelled by ex-president Goodluck Jonathan through the National Intelligence Agency (NIA) for his party’s 2015

Please do not insult Awolowo.

Iku yato si orun.

raumdeuter:
He wants to make his re-election be about Tinubu.

Aketi: Ondo people you better vote for me or Tinubu will come and take over our state, the same way Mimiko campaigned for his 2nd term

Tinubu should stay on the sidelines and watch him burn to the ground first before lifting a finger. See Ajimobi now, The party is having to come clean his mess in Oyo so much that they have to leave him out of campaign

IkpuMmadu:
Be guided ...we have reasonable Yoruba folks around and don't offend their sensibilities
