Governor Ambode Will No Longer Be Removed From Office – Tinubu

The national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, said that the Governor of Lagos State, Akinwunmi Ambode, would no longer be removed from office.

Bola Tinubu said this after the peace meeting that was organized by the APC leadership in the state.

He said that the executive and the legislative arms of government in the state had resolved to work together in the interest of the state. He said:

“In the last one week, there was noise about the conflict between the executive and the House of Assembly. It is of great concern to all of us and particularly, what Lagos represents across the country.

“We have been able to look into the source of the various conflicts, which is not uncommon in politics. What is the genesis of those problems? We are one big family and as a big family, you will have some disagreement.

“As leaders of the party, we have looked into that. We have looked into areas where we have to compromise, discuss, build the institutions and encourage them to really do what is right.

“We have resolved that there would be no question of impeachment in Lagos State. Let the two arms of government communicate and continue to respect one another and build consensus and understanding. That is all about politics.”

Tinubu noted that allowing the conflict to would have caused consequences not just for the state, but also the entire country.
