There was a drama of high interest at the National Convention of the All Progressives Congress in Abuja on Saturday as high profile players on the political landscape of Lagos met.
The National Convention, at the Eagle Square, Abuja, was for the affirmation of President Muhammadu Buhari as the presidential candidate of the party for the 2019 election.
Those from Lagos State who met at the venue included the National Leader of the APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu; a former Governor of the state and now Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Babtunde Fashola; Governor of the state, Akinwunmi Ambode; and the candidate of the APC for the 2019 governorship election, Babajide Sanwo-Olu.

Ambode and Sanwo-Olu had to go into the primaries for the election of the 2019 candidate of the party for the Lagos State governorship ticket, with Tinubu backing Sanwo-Olu against the incumbent who has only served one term.
Fashola had a running battle with Tinubu over who succeeded him also in 2014 for the 2015 governorship election.
