Lagos State Governor, Babatunde Raji Fashola recently celebrated
his 50th birthday in a grand fashion with highly placed politicians and
friends there to celebrate with himSuprise guest was Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi who has been
having a well publicised feud with his party The People's Democratic
Party
The embattled might have found a new home with the members
of the leading opposition party in Nigeria, the Action Congress of
Nigeria, since his party, the Peoples’ democratic Party, PDP has tagged
him a ‘bad boy’.
Amaechi along with Tinubu and other prominent
Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN)stalwarts attended the palour party
organised to mark the Golden Jubilee birthday celebration of Lagos State
Governor, Babatunde Raji Fashola at the government house in Lagos
The
roles of the opposition governors, especially the southwest’s in
Amaechi’s emergence as the Chairman, Nigeria Governor Forum, where he
polled 19 votes as against 16 votes of the PDP anointed candidate,
Gov.Jona Jang of Plateau State, may not be unconnected with Amaechi’s
current romance with the opposition camp.
The PDP, especially
those in the camp of President Goodluck Jonathan has being at
logger-head with the governor. The rift which has led to the abrupt
suspension of the governor from the ruling Peoples’ Democratic Party few
weeks ago.
