Tinubu Suggests Ambode Deviated From His 'Lagos Master Plan'
"For reasons unknown to me and most Lagosians, we have experienced such deviations from enlightened governance recently," Tinubu stated.
Bola Tinubu, National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has finally spoken on the recent happenings in the All Progressives Congress (APC) relating to the party's preferred governorship candidate for the 2019 election.
In a letter published by TVC on Sunday evening, Tinubu highlighted the achievements of the party in Lagos and other states, citing in particular "a master plan for economic development" for Lagos.
According to Tinubu, who reeled out a list of his achievements as Governor of Lagos State, the "master plan" was also adopted by his successor, Babatunde Fashola.
Noting that in recent times, his economic blueprint had been replaced with "inferior" schemes, he said: "For reasons unknown to me and most Lagosians, we have experienced such deviations from enlightened governance recently".
"I make no pretence that the master plan is perfect. It can always be fine-tuned. However, whenever a government departed from this plan without compelling reason, the state and its people have borne the painful consequence of the improper departure," he said.
"To ignore this blueprint for progress in order to replace it with ad-hoc schemes of a materially inferior quality contravenes the spirit of progressive governance and of our party. Such narrowness of perspective does not bring us closer to our appointed destination; it takes us farther from that destiny."
On what Lagosians should expect from the governorship primary scheduled for Monday, October 1, 2018, he said it will be an "encounter with destiny".
