Tinubu Didn’t Want To Work With Me When I Was His Deputy Gov, His Agenda Differed From That Of AD—Akerele

Chief Kofoworola Bucknor-Akerele has spoken about why she resigned as deputy governor of Lagos State when Bola Tinubu was governor of the state

In a video shared by Vanguard, Akerele said Tinubu did not want to work with her because they had different political goals and ideas

Akerele stated that she did not support Tinubu’s agenda because it was different from that of the party that brought them to power. She said Tinubu wanted her to help him take control of the party, but she refused, and that caused disagreement between them

In Akerele’s words: “Bola Tinubu did not want to work with me at all because he had a different agenda to the agenda of what the AD, the party that put us in power, stood for at that time. What he wanted was somebody who would assist him in taking over the AD, and because I was not ready to do that we had our differences”
