Ambode Pays ‘Thank You Visit’ To President Buhari

The Governor of Lagos State, Akinwunmi Ambode, has said he used to describe himself as a techno-politician, but having spent four years in the saddle, he is wiser now.

Ambode, who said he was on a thank you visit to President Muhammadu Buhari for commissioning some of the state’s projects during his last official visit to Lagos, said politicians learn everyday.

Speaking with state house correspondents during the visit, Ambode said: “You see, every politician learns every day. The fact remains that I came in as a technocrat, so I use to call myself a techno-politician but I think I am wiser now. I am more of a politician than a technocrat.”

Ambode is the first Lagos governor that will not be returning for a second term after he lost the governorship ticket of the party in the state.

The National Leader of All Progressive Congress (APC) Bola Tinubu’s chosen successor to Ambode, Babajide Sanwoolu, is the incoming governor of the state.

Meanwhile, the president reportedly met separately behind closed doors with Governors Samuel Ortom of Benue and Nasir El-Rufa’I of Kaduna, at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
