The Oba of #Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu, says Mr Akinwumi Ambode, an All Progressives Congress ( #APC ) member eyeing the Lagos oval house, is a suitable successor to Gov. Babatunde Fashola.

``When the APC leader, Bola Tinubu, chose Gov. Babatunde Fashola in 2007 to succeed him, it was met with stiff opposition but today Tinubu has been justified.

``We see a similar character like Governor Fashola in Ambode,’’ the Oba said.

Akiolu said that all other aspirants of the party were great but God and the elders had chosen Ambode.

``The APC can go ahead with their primaries but the elders of the state have met and agreed that Ambode should be the next governor of Lagos,’’Akiolu said.

In his speech, Ambode said that he was guided in life by the lessons he learnt from his father to be selfless.
