Asiwaji Bola Tinubu & Akinwunmi Ambode. |
Case in focus here is the relationship between the governor of Lagos, Akinwunmi Ambode and the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who single-handedly picked Gov. Ambode from the civil service where he was, yes, was, before he was sacked (no, he claimed to have resigned) by former governor, Babatunde Fashola over ......... issues, but lets not dwell here today.
One-thing alot of people didn't know is the fact that Asiwaju Bola Tinubu is simply an overwhelming and trusting politician who picks people from nowhere and entrusts in their care, responsibilities that are far bigger than they, giving them free hands to operate, make their own mistakes and then, DESTROY THEMSELVES in the process of trying to either over-do themselves or to undo others.
Now, the crux of the fight, no, A MAN OF TINUBU'S CALIBRE, cannot fight with an Ambode, for what exactly?
Governor Ambode's many sins against party leaders and leadership in Lagos started the day he, "UNKNOWINGLY" spoke ill of the the enigma called Tinubu, through a phone conversation the two of them had.
Ambode was at an evening out in Q-Lux, hope that's what that club on the Island is called with his friends drinking and enjoying themselves, then, a call from Asiwaju Bola Tinubu entered his phone, I mean, like father and son, they speak regularly, but that day was different as Ambode, either he was drunk from taking too much of alcohol or, anything could have happened, but he picked the call and had a supposedly smooth discussion with Asiwaju whom we are told records all his phone conversations.
After Ambode and Asiwaji had finished speaking, not knowing that the line was still on, told his friends who were with him that look, " IF HE NEEDS 4BILLION, I WILL GIVE HIM 8BILLION, IF HE NEEDS 10, WE WILL GIVE HIM 20BILLION, I WILL BE THE ONE TO RETIRE HIM FROM POLITICS IN THIS LAGOS".
WOW!
Shocking you might say, but this actually was what was said to Tinubu by a man he picked from nowhere and made governor and was planning to retire him from politics?
Well, I'm certain Governor Ambode must have by now, learnt how not to retire a breast milk that gave him life.
Such a pity that Asiwaji has finally retired him back to where he took him from politically.
