Tribune says that President Jonathan has brought in his top guns against Tinubu as the battle rages for control of Lagos state.

The paper reports:

"Jonathan, as the leader of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), flew into Lagos unannounced on Thursday night and reportedly held a series of meetings with top members of the party on how to ensure the emergence of Mr Jimi Agbaje as the next governor of the state.

"Tinubu’s APC, however, drew the first blood as it accused Jonathan of being in Lagos to execute an election rigging plot. Jonathan’s PDP replied in equal measure, describing the allegation as “repulsive, infuriating and deliberate to attack the president.”

"Tinubu, with his influence thrown behind APC’s candidate, Mr Akinwunmi Ambode, also met with party chieftains at his Bourdillion residence at about noon, Saturday Tribune learned.

"One of the groups met by the APC leader was G57, a forum of former chairmen of the 57 local government areas and local council development areas, who had supported Ambode since the nomination stage.
