Photo News: After Lagos Tsunami, Ambode and Sanwoolu Unite at Abuja APC Convention
By Mike Ojoobanikan
It was as if the two of them were ready to set Lagos on fire when they were jousting for the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship ticket.
The conflict was so much that not a few Nigerians believed that if Governor Akinwunmi Ambode and Babajide Sanwoolu were to meet at a dark alley, they could pour acid on each other!
In the end, Sanwoolu clinched the ticket and Ambode sent him greetings through a state wide broadcast.
Book makers were of the opinion that after Amode’s diplomatic post primaries public speech, he and his rival would relate like two touchy cocks thrown into a pit.
How wrong! The two politicians appeared together this night at the ongoing APC National convention at Eagle Square, Abuja, where the members will give an official stamp to President Muhammadu Buhari’s consensus candidates for 2019 presidential election.
Perhaps it will be safe to say, “for the love of party”.
