The Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu has said that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) would never win elections in the state.
Oba Akiolu stated further that God would give the citizens of Lagos another governor from the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The royal father reportedly stated this during the launch of the autobiography of the former President of the Court of Appeal, Mustapha Akanbi, at the Sheraton Hotel in Abuja on Wednesday, November 26.
“Recently,
I told Bode George, (Musiliu) Koro and (Adeseye) Ogunlewe that “Look at
me o! You will never win Lagos. God will give us another APC governor,” the Oba said.
Lagos
has been ruled by the APC since Nigeria returned to democracy in 1999;
first under the umbrella of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) before
the party was renamed and refashioned.
Second-time governorship aspirant, Musiliu Obanikoro has said that Lagos has remained within the grip of former Governor, Bola Tinubu for the past 16 years and that only he could save the state from the ex-governor who he calls the “Emperor of Bourdillon”.
