“Tinubu’s pyrrhic victory will be short-lived. The stolen crown balances on his head precariously. He will continue to shake until he drops it.
“It is funny that Lagos was the fulcrum of Tinubu’s campaign as he promised to replicate the miracle of Lagos across Nigeria, and yet the people of Lagos rejected him on the day of election.
“Tinubu lost in Ikeja local government where he had voted and also lost in Bourdillon, Ikoyi, where he lives. Rather than accept the will of the people, he unleashed thugs on the people he claimed to love."
