What do you mean "downgrade"?? The only position higher than that of a Governor is the President. Even senators and Ministers resign to contest governorship, talkless of a mere appointee serving at the pleasure of the president.
We're talking a whole governor with a mandate.

It's looking Lagos East actually, to round off Ambode's one term..... My first pick will be Tokunbo Abiru.

Jags will decide though!

I think that's a downgrade from his current position actually. Like the OP said, the State needs more a technocrat than politician.

The race for 2027 has begun and political permutations have started flying all over the place.
With the All Progressives Congress (APC), these are the likely contenders for Governor Babajide Sanwoolu's position as the CEO of Nigeria's richest and most populous state.

Although main concerns of the Lagos State Indigenes (The Locals) are:

- A conservative who will protect the interest of the Indigenes

- The ègún people of Badagry which is the South Western part of Lagos have never had the opportunity to govern the state from inception and deserve a chance

- Due to the nature of Lagos, the state needs a Technocrat more than a politician.

- Sustainability of existing development projects

These were the major grassroot concerns we gathered from our research.

What are your thoughts?
I prefer Ambode, but Tinubu will never want Ambode to do remaining 4 years in government

Every single opinion here or even by Lagos masses will never ever matter.

Only one man will decide and choose who will replace him.

If Gbaja emerges the Governorship candidate for ApC in Lagos state , his loyality to the powers and Principality in Lagos state will reduce

They should consider Ambode, who was a great performer and he was still loyal to the party even when he was denied deservedly second term. He didn't listen to the bitter people, who think everything is fighting. Anyway you can't compare a sound chartered accountant.
Ambode was brought in by a structure and he wasn't sensible enough to destroy or overwhelm the structure when he was showing it a lack of regard, of course the structure fought back and ensured he lasted one term.

There is a lot more to Nigerian politics and state gorvenance than what you see with your eyes.

Nigerians are the biggest political illiterates, especially Southern Nigerians.

In fact, Gbaja is the right candidate for the governorship position in Lagos state .. because he has worked with Jagaban and also understudied some of the tactics and strategies of Yoruba politics through him and he has the leadership capacity to continue from where Sanwoolu stopped. If Gbaja happens to the governor of Lagos state during 2023, Tinubu could never lose Lagos state ....Sanwoolu is a lightweight politician ....who is riding on the wings of Tinubu Political structures....in Lagos state .....
And the better part of Gbaja for me is that he is not married to any Ibo lady, unlike the Seyi Tinubu whose wife is an Ibo lady ......we the Yoruba conservatives are saying no to a candidate who is married to a non-Yoruba lady
