It is no longer news that political Caucuses n the Lagos State All Progressive Congress are back to basis. The Birthday Celebration Of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu ,Commander In Chief Of The Armed Forces Of The Federal Republic Of Nigeria, Was The Cloak for Re-inventing The Audacious Public Loyalty For Mandate Group And Justice Forum In Lagos State APC lately.
…What Makes The Political Machinations Of These Two Caucuses Would Be The Availability Of Funds, The Question Of The Day Is Which Of The Active Players On Each Side Has The Financial Muscle To Intimidate The Other In The Corridors of Power?.
To Many political Observers, This is the return of political mudslinging and political Shibboleth In The Grassroots of Lagos-Nigeria. Aside The Common Parlance That Politics Is Local .The Re-Emergence of the Two Caucus Will Make Politics In The Grassroots To get Interestingly Dirtier Among Members And Stakeholders.
There was a Sense Of Relief In Lagos State APC When In June 2020,The Governor’s Advisory Council (GAC) Banned Justice Forum And Mandate Group. It paved way for Unity Of Purpose, Oneness And Strength For The Realization Of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, As the Flagbearer Of APC For President, And Eventual Winner Of The 25, February,2023 Presidential Elections.
The Unity also ensured the Re-Emergence of the Executive Governor Of Lagos State Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu,As the party Flagbearer, And Eventually Winner At the Lagos State Gubernatorial Elections.
The prayer sessions that were held in honour of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) by Mandate Group On Friday 29, March ,2023 At GRA Ikeja And That Of Justice Forum On Saturday 30th March 2024 At Agindigbi-Ikeja Were the political smokescreen employed to announce public Activities of the two Caucuses In Lagos APC!
Memories of the Political Show of Wits Or Gerrymandering, These Two Caucus Exhibited Some Years Ago before it was banned ,are still fresh among Active Stakeholders. In the Shrewd Minds Of Some Observers, It is payback time for politicians to count their scores and lick their wounds. Ironically, Some Members of the Governor’s Advisory Council (GAC), That announced the disbandment Of Justice Forum And Mandate Group , Are Now At The Forefront Of The Two Political Caucuses, During The Special Prayer In Commemoration Of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu ‘s 72nd Birthday In Ikeja.
While the Mandate Group in her Special Prayer Session held at 7,Oduduwa Way ,Formerly Lagos House, Off Isaac -John Street.Ikeja GRA On Friday 29th March 2024, Had In Attendance The Likes Of Speaker Of The State House Of Assembly, Mudaishiru Obasa, Cardinal James Odumbaku, Senator Ganiyu Olarewaju Solomon, Chief Of Staff To The Lagos State Governor, Mr Tayo Ayinde Among Other Notable APC leaders. On the part of Justice Forum Which Held her prayer session on Saturday 30,March ,2024 In Honour Of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu , At The All Seasons Plaza Agindigbi-Ikeja. Lagos , had in Attendance Prince Tajudeen Olusi, Who led other political big wigs Including Oyinlomo-Danmole, Otunba Ishola Alebiosu, Prince Rabiu Oluwa,Otunba Deke Ajomale, Olorunfunmi Bashirun , Ebenezer Akingbolade, Yaya Dosunmu ,Prince Abiodun Ogunleye, Princess Adejoke Orelope-Adefuluire,Sir Ayo Akinyemi among several other Justice Forum Top Shots.
Quite interesting was the announcement of Hon. James Faleke, Federal law Maker Representing Ikeja Federal Constituency at the Federal House Of Representatives, As The State Coordinator of Justice Forum. This is politically Significant For the group, and it is a chess move by the Justice Forum to Match the Mandate Group in the Political intricacies on how to wield influence between the two groups before Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu,President Of The Federal Republic Of Nigeria. The political mind game has just begun , and rumours will become valuable assets for emotional decisions that could make or mar the candidacy of several aspiring council chairman across the 57 local Governments And Local Council Development Areas in Lagos.
What Makes the Political Machinations Of These Two Caucuses interesting would be, the availability of funds, The questions would be which of the active players on each of the group has the Financial Muscle To Intimidate the other In the Corridors Of Power?
This is the factor, And it is the only factor that has enabled the Mandate Group to bulldoze her way during Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola Era, Some Years Ago. The Power Shift Which Enables GAC To Control APC Lagos Structure, Witnessed Some Members Of Justice Forum become politically Capable to Wrestle Some Slots Away From The Mandate Group. The Tide Has Turned, And A New Political Heavyweights Have Emerged, And has thus taken charge , All Stakeholders have returned to base, and are ready to enter into the murky waters of politics, As they Share the Spoils For their Foundational Interests In The Politics Of Lagos on The 2025 Local Government Elections. And As Mentioned earlier, It is Payback time , The Game Master Has Switched Authority Again, And To Those In Whose Hands , The Wand Of The God’s fall into, must be prepared to use it wisely because the pendulum swings according to the political permutations of the Game Master. Those with power in the grassroots must remember that a great warrior of past heroics is never respected in the War Front Anymore. This is 2024 and not 2027. Moving Forward The Rolling Stone Of 2025 is certain to gather Political Moss, Let the Queen And Bishop Of Grassroots Politics Begin Their Mind Games In This Sport Of Chess, because any of the Two groups that wield more influence For 2025 grassroots Elections Will Definitely Dictate The Pace In 2027!
