A
national leader of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu, on Sunday said
that Governor Akinwunmi Ambode of Lagos would no longer be removed from
office.
Tinubu,
who spoke after a peace meeting was brokered by the APC leadership in the
state, said the State House of Assembly had agreed to sheathe its sword.
The
former governor said the executive and the legislative arms of government in
the state had resolved to work together in the interest of the state.
“In
the last one week, there was noise about the conflict between the executive and
the House of Assembly. It is of great concern to all of us and particularly,
what Lagos represents across the country.
“We
have been able to look into the source of the various conflicts, which is not
uncommon in politics. What is the genesis of those problems? We are one big
family and as a big family, you will have some disagreement.
“As
leaders of the party, we have looked into that. We have looked into areas where
we have to compromise, discuss, build the institutions and encourage them to
really do what is right.
“We
have resolved that there would be no question of impeachment in Lagos State.
Let the two arms of government communicate and continue to respect one another
and build consensus and understanding. That is all about politics,” Tinubu
said.
