Tinubu: Lagos Group Salutes El-Rufai Over Anti-Godfatherism Stand
A Lagos group under the auspices of Save Lagos Group(SLG) has
applauded the Kaduna State Governor, Mallam Nasir el-Rufai over his
stand on godfattherism in Nigeria politics,particularly in Lagos
State, declaring support to el-Rufai position, the group maintained
that the godfatherism saga has eroded the State of finest governor in
person of Mr. Akinwumi Ambode.
Meanwhile, the group also declared that the National Leader of the
ruling All Progressives Congress(APC),Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu did
not fit to rule the country come 2023 as being aspired by
him)Tinubu),explaining that if the Presidency was to zone to the
Southwest Nigeria in 2023, the current Vice-President, Professor Yemi
Osinbajo,SAN was most qualified than his godfather(Tinubu).
It supported its position with certificate racketing of Senator Bola
Tinubu tagged “CHICAGOGATE” which is still pending in the Court of
Competent jurisdiction in the land,insisting that Tinubu still had the
certificate saga hanged on its neck till today and it would not augur
well for southwest region to push such a character forward for the
position of President when the region has current Vice-President who
is a Professor of Law and Senior Advocate of Nigeria(SAN).
It added that Professor Osinbajo had garnered all the needed
experiences in both the public and private sphere to be the President
of the country in the nearest future.
According to the signed statement by the Convener of the SLG,Comrade
Adeniyi,Alimi Sulaiman,after the group’s monthly meeting in Lagos at
the weekend and copies were made available to newsmen on Sunday, it
commended the Kaduna State governor for his boldness and courage to
take the bull by the horns to speak against Senator Bola Tinubu on
the subject matter as rape of democracy.
They described Tinubu as self centred leader who only used
enthronement of his political godsons in various political offices to
enrich himself and his family members, instead of rendering selfless
service to humanity as displayed by the outgoing governor of the
State,Mr Ambode.
They used the opportunity to call on the courageous people of the
Southwest and Lagos State in particular, to rise up against the
domineering tendency of Senator Bola Tinubu by taking their destinies
in their hands and put stop to the ongoing political slavery in the
region and the Lagos State.
According to the statement “it is high time for the well meaning
people of the Southwest region and Lagos State to join hands together
to uproot the modern day political slavery of Senator Bola Ahmed
Tinubu. It is fascist idea for only Senator Bola Tinubu to be
determined who gets what,when and how in the political space of the
region vis a vis the State.This singular selfish action of Tinubu
eroded the good people of Lagos State, the good works and selfless
service of Governor Akinwumi Ambode for the next four years.
“Kaduna State governor,Mallam Nasir el-Rufai had captured the feelings
of Lagosians in his anti-godfatherism statement against the
domineering tendency of Senator Bola Tinubu. The APC National Leader
is just doing everything possible to put the Lagos State and entire
southwestern Nigeria in his pocket in order to determine who gets
anything but God that set people of Isreal free from Pharaoh, would
soon set the State and the region free from Tinubu’s hand.May God
bless late Chief Ganiyu Oyesola Fawehinmi,SAN in his grave, who
exposed Tinubu’s Chicagogate then”.
Speaking further on the recent Tinubu and his cohorts pilgrimage to
lesser Hajj(Umurah), the statement said the pilgrimage was political
and not for religion obligation.
The statement therefore urged the people of likes mind to come
together to lead the struggle for the emancipation of the region and
Lagos State from the hand of present impostor.
