Tinubu has described the allegations by the coordinator of a Lagos-based group, Visioners for New Lagos, Mr. Bambo Akin-Johnson as one of the common insinuations which is bound to happen since the election is drawing near.
Meanwhile Tinubu's Media Adviser, Mr. Sunday Dare on Monday reacted to the allegations saying: “It’s the season of politics and an election year, such allegations and insinuations will be commonplace. This particular one is unfounded. Let them provide proof. He who alleges must prove.
“What I recall he has said repeatedly is that development is not about religion. And that governing Lagos State is about merit, competence and ability of the candidate.
“Just like he governed Lagos and laid a foundation upon which Governor Babatunde Fashola, another competent governor built upon, the next governor of Lagos must also be competent and qualified.
“The people of Lagos and the voters will decide who they want as governor when they go out to vote. Not a group like this one will decide for them.”
