JomogNews Nigeria has exclusively received a report that APC National Leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu is making surreptitious efforts to obtain Senatorial Nomination form for his sister in law, Mrs Lola Akande after his plan to use the SSA to the President on SDG, Hon. Orelope Adefulire hit the rock when the latter withdrew from the race last weekend after the close of Nomination.
It was also gathered that he is also considering Mrs Idiat Adebule as a replacement for Yayi if Mrs Akande’s candidacy fails to fly with Lagos West leaders.
Meanwhile, Mrs Adebule is expected to leverage her relationship with the National Chairman Sen. Adamu Abdullahi when they both served in the National Reconciliation Committee of APC to procure the nomination form from the backdoor.
It is not yet clear how the form will be obtained after the window for the purchase of forms has closed and Aspirants screened by the National Secretariat of the Party.
As at the weekend, only three persons had obtained nomination forms for Lagos West Senatorial Seat, while two submitted their forms and faced the screening.
The Committee has since submitted its report.
More details later….
