The President-elect, General Muhammadu Buhari, on
Tuesday, April 7, revealed why it’s mandatory the governorship candidate
in Lagos state, Akinwunmi Ambode is sworn in come May 29.

General Buhari disclosed this at the APC rally in Orile area of the state. He urged Lagos residents to vote en masse for the party’s governorship candidate in Lagos State, Mr Akinwunmi Ambode on Saturday.
“Defy all elements, whatever it may be, and vote for APC from top to bottom,’’ he said.
Buhari told the crowd that Lagos, with its huge investments, could not be toyed with.
He said; “Don’t attempt to be on the wrong side of the centre because we are now the centre.

“I am extremely impressed, “he said.
