A former chairman of the All Progressives Congress, South Africa Chapter, Mr Bola Babarinde, has commended the reconciliatory effort of the Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, and his immediate-past predecessor, Akinwunmi Ambode.
The party chieftain, who noted that Tinubu’s road to the Presidency was rough and tough with many lessons learnt, said Tinubu was never deterred but was determined to achieve his lifetime ambition.
“He was betrayed, abused, denigrated, unjustly accused and demonised by friends and foes, but he was never deterred, rather, he was determined to achieve his long-time ambition.”He said, “One of his many mentees is Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, who organised a reception to welcome him back to his home state, which also served as the reunion for the four governors that served Lagos from 1999 till date.
“Sanwo-Olu started the reconciliation move with Ambode, his predecessor, when he eulogised him during his 60th birthday with big publicity for such magnanimity and humility.”All rights reserved.
