Lagos: Ambode Fights Dirty, Says His Opponent, Sanwo-Olu Is Mentally Ill

Embattled Lagos state Governor Akinwunmi Ambode, has gone haywire, describing his main opponent in tomorrowMonday’s governorship primary of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in Lagos, Jide Sanwo-Olu, as mentally ill.

Addressing a world press conference today, Sunday, in Lagos, Governor Ambode said that Sanwo-Olu had gone through mental rehabilitation and therefore not a fit and proper candidate for the position of Lagos governor.

“He (Sanwo-Olu) has been arrested for spending fake US dollars in an American night club. He lacks competency and health wise, he has gone through mental rehabilitation.”

Governor Ambode said that Sanwo-Olu had served term in US prisons in connection with a string of counterfeit bill-passing incidents in the country.

For the first time since his battle with forces loyal to South-West political strongman Senator Bola Tinubu, the governor said that he was fully prepared for a free and fair party primary elections, tomorrowMonday.

He said that he was under no illusion about the task ahead in the APC primary billed to produce the APC flag bearer for governorship position in the state.
