The fight for the spirit of Lagos State took an abnormal contort yesterday when Governor Akinwunmi Ambode intensely told a gathering of pioneers of the decision All Progressives Congress, APC,
at the Bourdillon, Ikoyi home of the gathering's National Leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, that he won't advance down for their favored competitor in the 2019 governorship race in the state.
The gathering led by Tinubu and called under the standard of Governor's Advisory Council (GAC) the greatest faction in Lagos APC additionally had in participation active legislative
head of Osun, Rauf Aregbesola, his recently chose successor, Gboyega Oyetola, Ambode and different individuals from the 22-part board.
A dependable source at the gathering revealed to Saturday Sun that "Ambode was told in plain terms that the gathering
won't bolster his second term aspiration and all things considered should venture down for the hopeful the gathering individuals are clamoring for.
Be that as it may, all through the entire discourse and till the gathering finished, the representative held fast, clarifying why he should run and that he will run if APC wants to win the state."

overlook even the president's mediation, they will be bound like Osun. Nigerians will see that Tinubu is exaggerated as has appeared in Osun.
You can see that the president needed to send Fayemi, Oshiomhole, and others to advance into the Osun decision, the presidential emissaries turned out poorly meet Tinubu
and Aregbesola who were in Osogbo before they went straight to meet Omisore in Ile-Ife, that shows how less they respect him", the source included.
