How Ambode lost his second term bid, Adefuye, GAC member reveals.

A member of the Lagos State Governor’s Advisory Council, GAC, Senator Anthony Adefuye, yesterday, disclosed how party leaders in Lagos East Senatorial District fought to secure the second term ticket for Governor Akinwunmi Ambode.

Adefuye disclosed this at a reconciliation meeting held at CMD Shangisha in Lagos. Ambode Adefuye, the APC Lagos East Senatorial District Leader, said: “People accused us of removing Governor Akinwunmi Ambode. We saw this crack four months ago and we decided to meet with our Lagos Central Senatorial Leader, Alhaji Tajudeen Olusi and we went to see Asiwaju Bola Tinubu. “We asked Tinubu if there was any problem, and he said that there was a problem and he narrated it. “We prostrated and asked him to call the Ambode and speak with him. “We left the place and started calling the Ambode to give him a hint of the meeting, but he did not pick our calls. Asiwaju Tinubu said that he was not picking his calls too. I actually tried my best.

“We rose up to defend Ambode. We didn’t just follow Asiwaju like sheep, we fought and we tried. “Those of us in the East nearly burst into tears for the opportunity we lost in Lagos East. “I fought tooth and nail to make sure that the position was not taken away from us. It was a great opportunity that we lost. “Anyone that is not a party man should not be elected into positions. Take this advice and make sure you don’t make the same mistake.”

Hmmm, Ambode, maybe you thought they were calling to beg for money shebi? Am sure by now you'll be picking even your gate man's call. Life is in phases.

Lesson: Leaders in position of authority should never take other stakeholders for granted because you never know when you will need them. No man is an island.

So proud you dont even pick Tinubu's calls?
Now here you are parading by Sanwo Olu's side like you're no longer the governor.
Proud fat mofo

You Elders should allow him to lick his wounds in peace, you cant beat a child and expect the child not to cry.
Ambo got humiliated by Tinubu and Buhari could not save him.
Just leave him alone for now to concentrate on giving Lagosians democracy dividends in his remaining months in office

He wasnt a popular governor. He was a vindictive visionless (if thats even a word) less than smart leader.Thats why he lost is second term bid.Imagine if he had been had the top of his game.it would have been difficult to sweep him aside like second hand slippers
