According to Punch Newspapers, Gani alleged that Lola Akande and Deji Tinubu are family members of of the All Progressives Congress (APC) National leader.

“We also fault the nominations of Jide Idris, Akintola Benson, Anofi Elegushi, Ganiu Johnson and Folarin Coker because they had either been personal staff or relatives of a former governor of the state. Thus it will continue to be business as usual in the governance of the state as the state resources will continue to be superintendend by the former governor who is the incumbent governor’s godfather.”

“This list is so mediocre, self-serving, embarrassing that it cannot justify the delay and waste of days. Lagosians should not expect any change from Ambode. By this list, his hands are tied. He will only succeed to the extent that his godfather allows this list to serve Lagosians.”
