@news.no.dey.finish: A former aide to President Bola Tinubu, Prof Dapo Thomas, has claimed that Tinubu was worried ahead of the 2014 APC governorship primary in Lagos. According to him, Tinubu feared that then-governor Babatunde Fashola could use his influence to stop Akinwunmi Ambode from becoming the party's candidate. Thomas made the claims in his autobiography, Lagos Boy and Lagos Politics. He alleged that Fashola supported Supo Sasore and possibly Obafemi Hamzat against Ambode, turning the primary into a major battle for political control of Lagos. Ambode eventually won with 3,735 votes, while Hamzat got 1,201 and Sasore received 121 votes. Thomas said Ambode's victory strengthened Tinubu's political influence in Lagos. He explained that he wrote the book to document historical events and give Nigerians a better understanding of the political battles and decisions that helped shape Lagos politics.
