Interesting days are ahead, as more dramas are likely to unfold after the primary election of the All Progressives Congress (APC) appeared to have struck a chord of division in the ruling party.

Against the declaration of the National Working Committee (NWC)of the All Progressives Congress (APC), a winner has emerged in the Lagos governorship primary election.

Mr Babjide Sanwo-Olu was declared winner Tuesday with a wide margin.

It was like a kingdom divided against itself for some Lagos residents who had thought it was over with the election after the NWC declared it illegal and without credibility.

Fake election materials were used, the NWC claimed, but the APC in Lagos was on a cruise drive with the process to the letter.

After collating and announcing the result, with Mr Sanwo-Olu polling 970,851 while Governor Akinwunmi Ambode got 72,901 votes, the chairman of the APC in Lagos, Mr Tunde Balogun, said the people had spoken.

He then gave reasons it was necessary to announce the result of the primary that had been dubbed illegal.

“For me, as a party chairman, to see a vast number of people to come out and vote and then say that no primary took place will be to cast shame to the party and its leadership, this I shall not do.

“The party faithful have spoken, and it is their voice that is paramount.

“The Lagos chapter of APC is committed to honouring their choice.

"Their decision must stand as the true expression of APC in Lagos.

"To embark on any other course will be to betray our members, state and the core principle of progress and democracy upon which the APC is founded”.

He then highlighted that the NWC members that had cancelled the election were in direct opposition to the spirit of democracy.

"Those persons who now claim this election did not take place stand in direct opposition to the spirit of democracy and the express will of APC members in Lagos state.




"Such a move is also at variance with the President's strict adherence to the principle of transparency, openness and participatory democracy,” he added.

Lagos residents will have to wait and see where the entire drama will lead to.

With the result announced, the incumbent Governor becomes the first Governor of Lagos State to lose a second term bid since 1999.

There is no shame on you APC in general. What kind of transparency and electoral legacy are you going to leave behind as a party? All the elections held under APC are marked by irregularities hence far from free or fare.
What kind of human beings are you? Who is Babajide Olu to win Ambode in primaries? Ambode also jumped fence to become the governor.

"the same price Ahmed Tinubu bought AMBODE the same price he sold you"

Didn't know Igbos love and care so much about APC

You must be dreaming!
Anyone that disagrees with AMALA AND EWEDU politics is IPOB?
Tribalistic BUFFOON!

gaby:
Fools who can't think for themselves always attacking any and everyone who dares to think differently or have an opposing view.

Watch Tinubu cancel this primaries and prop up his daughter, they'd still come here to display their lack of ability to reason for themselves by applauding him and such move.
Very pitiable souls.

As early as a month ago, none of the Rams currently applauding the present status saw anything wrong with Ambode and his style until Tinubu slapped them all spiritually to reset their brains and begin to see the "rot" through his glasses.

Weak, lily-livered folks.

Funny when ipoibs deny their ipobian identity.'


Only cowards deny their true identity..

deomelo:



Sadly for you Igbos, were you in love with ambode a month ago? Were you applauding for the mountains of trash all over laogs, were you applauding him for the bad and ugly roads, were you applauding him for the tons of projects he abandoned, were you applauding him for giving Lagosians bus stops for the N1 trillion budget they gave him?



Spare us the crocodile tears and fake concern, you care less about Lagos or ambode, just like the rest of your fellow Igbos, all you care about is Tinubu and how much you hate and obsessed about him.

Pekele007:

So Ambode is no longer the best governor because your master Tinubu said so?


when will you ever be free

gaby:


Any head that refuses to be buried inside Tinubu's ass (not out of hatred o) but for daring to think different and have an opposing view is automatically an Ipob.

It is well...

You went ahead to announce results of election that was not approve.
Who gave you the approval to conduct the kangaroo election without ballot paper,
Who accredited the voters?
Who approved the option A4?

The election can not stand.
