Reasons I Was “Removed” As Governor – AMBODE

Akinwumi Ambode was the immediate past Governor of Lagos State. He was “removed” after he lost out in the primary election that was adjudge to be free and fair to the current Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu.

However, the governor, Ambo as he fondly call and some groups in the state are of the opinion that the governor was “removed” to clinch the second term in office for some utterior reasons stated below by the governor:

1) I constructed 22 roads in Alimosho and refused to award any of the contracts to Aregbesola and co.

2) I insisted that contracts that had been awarded to party leaders under Fashola must be executed before they can be awarded new contracts under my regime.

3) I wanted to phase out Danfos and Area boys from the streets of Lagos and introduce smarter means of transportation without Area boys and Agberos.

4) I refused to pad the budget with 10% for house of assembly members led by Bayo Osinowo and Mudashir Obasa.

5) I refused to grant the concession of 4th mainland bridge to Tinubu’s Hitech

6) I refused to increase the amount of money being paid from the state revenue to Tinubu through Alpha Beta from 10% to 20%

7) I developed Epe. Epe was never in their master plan.

9) I refused to use Lagos state funds to finance osun elections.

10) I opposed Tinubu’s succession plan, which will see his son Seyi Tinubu becoming the next Governor of Lagos state after me. – Hope For Nigeria
