The governor of Lagos state who has reportedly fallen apart with his political godfather and the national leader of the All Progressives Congress, has made a hilarious remark about their fall-out.
While speaking an ongoing event at the Eko Hotel Convention Centre in Lagos, the governor of Lagos state, Akinwunmi Ambode, sent the audience laughing while acknowledging Bola Tinubu, during the launch of ‘Africa Rise and Shine’, a book by the chairman of Zenith Bank, Jim Ovia.
According to TheCbale, the governor who was invited to speak immediately after the national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Tinubu, mounted the podium, acknowledged the dignitaries, saying he was not prepared to give a speech.
He said: “Actually, I didn’t prepare to come and say anything here… And who am I to speak after the Jagaban has spoken?”.
His sentence got the audience and himself laughing, before he went on to speak on Ovia.
“But obviously, the truth is, there is no person that has actually gone through the profession of accountancy that would not have had anything to do with Uncle Jim, and that is the truth,” Ambode added.
Other dignitaries at the event are Vice-President, Yemi Osinbajo, Rilwan Akiolu, Oba of Lagos, governors of Delta, Borno and Taraba states.
