“Why I Chose Ambode To Run For Governor” - Bola Tinubu

The National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, (APC) and former Lagos State Governor, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has revealed why Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode is the best man to succeed the incumbent governor Mr. Babatunde Fashola. On why he settled for Ambode as the party’s standard bearer, the former governor explained that “what we have seen in the last eight years is performance, unbroken promises, employment, skills development, road construction, health centres and hospitals and several achievements. Whatever anybody that says, who is the founder of those talents?”

Commending the performance of Fashola, Tinubu said, “Our prayer is that our children will perform better than us and that is why I am a proud man today because my successor in office who I brought, Governor Babatunde Fashola has performed exceptionally and that is why I can beat my chest today”.


Speaking further, he said, “When youths came to me that they want another dynamic governor, I told them not to be in a hurry and that help is on the way but I can categorically state today that we have found someone in the person of Mr Akinwunmi Ambode and I can say the revolution is here and Lagos will experience another level of development with Ambode”.
