The group had recently called for
the disqualification of the governorship candidate, predicating its call on
alleged recent discovery that Ambode had a history of mental illness.
It hinged the decision of the group
on an alleged chanced happening of Ambode when he went to the United States for
routine check-up.
“We are constrained to call on INEC
to disqualify Ambode because of his mental imbalance. We cannot take such risk
in Lagos,” the group had said.
Reacting, however, the Akinwumi
Ambode Campaign Organisation said it was saddening that the jittery opposition
would stop at nothing in its smear campaign, having failed to contain the
soaring popularity of the APC governorship candidate in the state.
“We are neither bothered nor
discouraged; and we know that our numerous supporters and the generality of
well-meaning Lagosians can see through the lies and desperations of those who
dread a crushing defeat at the forthcoming election.
“We know the source of this evil
story as well as their despicable trumpeters. Well, we’ve got news for them…
April 11, 2015 is almost here and it’s a date with history, when the good
people of Lagos State will, once again, reject the evil machinations of those
political marauders trying so hard to hijack their destiny.
“For the avoidance of doubt, Ambode
neither suffers from any ailment nor has ever met or been treated by a certain
Dr. Lanre Adeoye. This fictional tale should be disregarded in its entirety.
“With a clear focus, sound mind and
in good health, Ambode shall be unwavering in his campaigns and strategic
consultations to retain Lagos State for APC.
“Fashola is working, Lagos is moving
and Ambode is ready. No weapon of the opposition can stand against this obvious
choice of the people,” the statement read.
