Former Lagos State governor and National Leader of the ruling APC, Chief Bola Tinubu, is faced with a dilemma over the candidate to support between the Rotimi Akeredolu and Olusola Oke in the November 26 gubernatorial race in Ondo state.
Sources close to the former governor informed Thisday Newspaper that Tinubu has been extremely unhappy with his party over the outcome of APC primary, following the defeat of his preferred candidate for the Ondo election, Mr. Olusegun Abraham.
Seeing that he could not get the party to do his bidding, a source informed on Sunday said that Tinubu might have now decided to back AD candidate, Olusola Oke in the governorship election in Ondo State.
Furthermore, the source said Tinubu’s decision to back Oke instead of Akeredolu stemmed from the fact that the APC chieftain also lost out in the Kogi governorship election when his pick, Hon. James Faleke, was ditched by the party in favour of Yahaya Bello as the governorship candidate of Kogi after the death of Abubakar Audu before the conclusion of the election.
