In a recent interview with Punch, Oba of Lagos, Rilwan
Akiolu expressed his reservations over some PDP politicians especially in Lagos
state who were in disagreement with APC Chieftain Bola Tinubu. According to
him, the art of politics & getting things done for now can only be done
through Tinubu.
"There are still good people in the PDP. I am not
saying that. Don’t misquote me. There are many good people like Ade Dosunmu and
even Jimi Agbaje, who is my blood relation. But it is unfortunate because there
are some things I don’t want to disclose. Their hatred of Bola Tinubu is the
mistake they are making. He is an individual they don’t understand. You know
Jesus said in the Bible that ‘Father please forgive them for they know not what
they do’.
And the Tinubu that they wanted to destroy, see what God has
helped him to do for Nigeria. The Bible said the stone which the builders
rejected has become the chief cornerstone. The art of politics and getting
things done for now, can only be done through Bola Tinubu, which they do not
understand.
Some people say I always agree with him and it is because they do
not know me. I have no friend or enemy and I don’t have a reservoir of
knowledge but God has found me worthy. We argue on many occasions and at times,
he suggests reasonable things which I concur with but sometimes, I will
convince him to accept my own and as a son to a father, he has no choice but to
obey me", he said.
