Unlike Buhari who ran four times before eventually winning, Peoples Democratic Party candidate, Jimi Agbaje has declared his intention not to contest again for the position of governor in Lagos after the losing twice.
While speaking on ChannelsTV yesterday evening after his opponent (Akinwunmi Ambode) has been declared the winner of saturday’s poll, Agbaje made it known that it is obvious that Lagosians have made choioce and it will be senseless to resort to violence.
Agbaje lost to All Progressives Congress (APC) Party candidate, Akinwunmi Ambode with a 152,206 vote margin. He however made his next step known saying he will never run again.
“I tried once before, this is the second one. I’m not running again,” he said. “If I can’t be of service as governor, there are other ways of serving the state. I will find other ways of serving.”
Agbaje, 58, called Ambode some minutes before 6pm on Sunday evening to concede defeat to the APC candidate.
