Oba Of Lagos Tips Buhari For Second Term (9JA NEWS)

The Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu, has endorsed President Buhari for second term, begging Nigerians to PLEASE give him a chance. He said we all need to work towards putting the President there again for another four years and he believes Nigeria will turn around for good. Oba Akiolu said this at the opening ceremony of the 17th Lagos Housing Fair, yesterday.
He said:
“Buhari has to do more, I agree, but we all have to assist by giving him another four years and see where he will take Nigeria to. I am supporting what is good for Nigeria.
“In 2011, Buhari sent Tony Momoh to me that he was coming to meet the leaders of Lagos in my palace by 1pm, he came by 3pm and said he was delayed by bad roads and traffic. I told him he caused it because he cancelled the metro line of Lagos State in 1984. I told him I would not tell Lagos people to vote for him.
“But in 2015 when he came, it was on a Friday, he came with my son, Bola Tinubu, and I noticed that for 20 minutes it rained. It occurred to me that God is going to favour this man.
“I prefer Buhari to Obasanjo. Obasanjo keeps deceiving people for what he is after. But if Buhari is given another chance and God gives him good health and he chooses the right people to work with, Nigeria will be a better place.
