The gubernatorial elections in Lagos will be more interesting than the Presidential election. Ambode will test the power of his incumbency against Tinubu's strong hold on Lagos. I love it. 💃

Where is PDP in all this APC Lagos shenangnans? The best time to strike is when the house is divided against itself. Ambode has been useless, is there truly no one willing to challenge?
