SLG lambasts Tinubu for alleged stand against Ambode’s appointment

Save Lagos Group ( SLG) has urged the National Leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress( APC), Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu to stop playing God over the plan to appoint the immediate past Governor of the State, Mr Akinwumi Ambode into the yet to be constituted cabinet of President Muhammadu Buhari.

Reacting to the recent statement credited to Senator Bola Tinubu which has been on the media for a while now that he would resign his membership of APC if President Buhari nominates Mr. Ambode as Ministerial nominee from the State.

In a statement by the SLG’s Convener, Comrade Adeniyi, Alimi Sulaiman and copies were made available to newsmen on Tuesday.

Comrade Sulaiman stated that Senator Tinubu has turned himself to Alpha and Omega of the State nay Nigeria politics, forgetting that only God gives and takes power and no human being can act like God.

Quoting the part of the statement credited to Tinubu that, “Ambode tried to destroy the party in his first term.Apart from not being accessible, he revoked contracts belonging to the party members and brought in his own companies.”

Speaking further, SLG chief maintained that all the ideas of Tinubu in the politics of the State and Nigeria was parochial and self serving.

Appraising Ambode, he disclosed that Ambode was more qualified than Tinubu because Ambode is educationally qualified to hold any position including Minister in the country, because he doesn’t have “Chicagogate” on his educational qualification like Mr. Godfatherism.
He, therefore urged Buhari to appoint former Governor Ambode into his cabinet without further delaying so as to bring credibility to his second term in office.
