Am a muslim & Lagos indigene. Though majority of indigenes of Lagos are Muslim (go 2 Agboyi, Isheri, Epe, Ikorodu, Lagos Island, Lekki ), we are not religious fanatics. We see Lagos like America where anybody who can come & contribute positively 2 d devlpment of Lagos is welcome. So, whether Ambode is originally 4rm Ilaje or not, we are not discriminatory. In 2011, while on my way 2 vote, I met a pastor friend who asked 4 my preferred candidate. I told him 'Jonathan'. He asked me 2 vote Buhari but I insisted on Jonathan. (Though I won't vote jona this time cos he has disappointed us). So, we Lagosians will cooperate with any governor, wheteher Muslim or Xtian or otherwise. This positive attitude is what keeps d Lagos train forward. I will be glad if Ogun state can cooperate with d governor 2 uplift their state rather than causing commotion with any incumbent governor
I agree with u. However, I'm afraid APC may lose Lagos State to PDP with dat. People are very sensitive when it comes to d issue of religion.

Truth is bitter. In d history of Nigeria, Lagos State has always been in d opposition party against d federal govt. Our political fathers in Lagos understood wot I posted even though some of them were/are christians. They would always present a muslim candidate for d Lagos governorship election to keep Lagos State safe from d federal govt. Like I said, APC might lose Lagos State to PDP with Ambode, especially if PDP presents Obanikoro who happens to be a muslim. This is one of d tactics of democracy.

Don't be afraid. I am not a party man but I respect d political sagacity of Tinubu: He presents mostly a credible & attractive candidate. He smells d desire of pple 4rm far. ACN have learnt a lot 4rm d days of AD when they lost their seats. U can see all d states yesterday, even d media confirmed that they presented d mos popular candidates 4 d primary. If Lagos had presented a christian 4 Lagos governorship, it would backfire in d Presidential. Now, pple will not refer APC as a muslim party. I can see that Tinubu is achieving d poilitical feat which Awolowo was not able 2 achieve.

Governor flagbearer is a great mistake on d part of leadership of APC.
I'll be disappointed if dis leads to PDP taking over Lagos come 2015.
Lagos State is dominated by muslims. Ambode is a christian. APC leaders
should have endorsed a muslim candidate with Ambode being d deputy. When
it comes to d issue of religion, people are very sensitive. Majority of
Lagosians would always prefer a muslim governor just like majority of
Deltans would prefer a christian governor. APC leadership shouldn't have
yielded to d pressure from d christians. If PDP presents, for instance,
a muslim candidate like Obanikoro, PDP may take Lagos from APC. APC
leaders should have taken into consideration dat in Democracy, majority
interest matters a lot. In any case, all d best.[/quote]ARRANT NONSENSE,

Honestly, I respect Tinubu. He is a wizard when it comes to politics. He is d only one for now from d SW who can tame and domesticate federal govt when it comes to politics. I respect his stand on political issues. However, nobody is above mistake. Let's wait and see...

op let me tell u this we don't play religious card here in not only lagos but the entire South west. why do we have to when we have both muslims and Christians even traditional worshippers in almost all the families?
am a muslim and i voted for Jonathan in 2011. I voted for Gbenga Daniel in 2007. Presently in lagos and am a vote for ambode come next year. my bro a muslim married a christian ibo for that matter. my sis a christian convert my dad has masquerade. my mum is an Alhaja. and guess what? We are Happiest like that.

I think the main reason why religious card is bn played in both north and south is because of one religion dominancy in each region respectively.
religion is fake. There is no one that is better. I have gone to the church prayed in the name of Jesus and i can tell u so many things I don't like about christianity as well as Islam. The fact that u can't wake up a dead person by calling the name of Jesus and of course do so too by reciting some hayas in Quran makes both religions nothing spectacular forget those movies we watch. They are just acting. U pray u die. U don't pray u die so what are we saying?
I love your post, and I'll like to know which pill you took, the BLUE Pill or the RED Pill? My guess is the BLUE pill, cuz i can see that you have been emancipated from religious slavery. And how far did the rabbit hole goes? Deeper i guess too.

Welcome to the new world.

I agree that u are entitled to ur opinion, no matter how dense it is. In terms of box to box Nigerian politics, BAT is my num 1. The only snag I see here is that the masses would have prefered BRF's Femi Hamzat for continuity sake but Jagaban controls the machinery so the delegates danced to his tune. I believe he knows what he is doing but APC cud lose if Agbaje flags for PDP. People might vote for his person and not the party, but then votes might not count as usual.

Pls rise above religious sentiments, it will do u a lot of good.

Tinubu from Osun state

Most of the executive members and advisers of the cabinet for the last 16years are not true Lagosians.

Rubbish, it is the turn of Christians and no sane Muslim will have a problem with it. I heard the deputy he wants to pick is a Muslim so that's enough.
Ambode has won and it is not the issue of turn here.
When will it ever be the turn of Muslims in the Niger Deltan States. Or do you want to tell me that there are no Muslims in the South. Eg Imo, Bayelsa, Enugu etc.

Lets not talk about that from the point of religion. Lagos is dominated by muslims. APC felt Ambode will continue with the good work of Fashola and that's all.
