Former Lagos State Governor Akinwunmi Ambode has congratulated his successor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, saying the new governor deserved to enjoy his historic day without having him share in the glory with him.
Hear him: “I have already formally handed over the reigns of power to the new governor in a most cordial and convivial ceremony at the State House yesterday. The formal inauguration should have Mr. Sanwo-Olu as the star of the day. I don’t think that glory should be shared with him by my presence,” Ambode said in a short statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Habib Aruna.
