From all indications and by the recent happenings in Lagos State, Jimi Agbaje is sure of winning the April 11, 2015governorship election in the state if results from the polling units will be allowed to count and as such he should take his personal security before Saturday’s election serious.
Agbaje popularly called Jimi is the man to beat in this election. Lagosians are tired of the 16years of looting, waste & bad governance in the state. Never before has any man ever posed serious threat to the Tinubu’s political dynasty like Jimi Agbaje of the PDP presently does.
Lagosians like Nigerians seem to just want change. Anything but not APC in Alausa will do now. But since Lagos is more important to Asiwaju Bola Ahmed and his fellow gangs of vested interested, they can do anything possible under the sun to protect their political empire.
There is no doubt that Asiwaju’s political control at the national level will be limited and tamed by the Fulanis that who will surround Buhari and won’t let him have a hold. Tinubu understands this and will do anything possible to maintain his godfather dominance in Lagos.
The threat that Jimi poses to Asiwaju’s dynasty is a very serious one and he should as a matter of urgency takes his personal security very serious. Those who murdered Funsho Williams are still very much around and alive. The devil in them is always willing to act more.
Jimi should take appropriate security measures about his personal safety at all times. He should leave nothing to chance as he is dealing with a very ruthless set of people who will not hesitate to commit the most wicked act to protect their political/business empire. They have a well oiled media conglomerate to manage the worst crime and even put the burden on the PDP.
If going by all predictions and opinion polls conducted so far about the Lagos gubernatorial elections of a Jimi victory, the security agencies should also fortify their security presence around Jimi Agbaje. This necessary not to trigger an unimaginable crisis.
The APC in Lagos maintains a Mafia group and has institutionalized area boys known as Team Lagos. They can always carry out the most dastard of all crimes. They can do anything to ensure the filth of lucre they enjoy is maintained. Agbaje must watch it as history beckon on him to salvage Lagos.
