The difference between JK and Ambode


It is interesting reading the opinion of both sides. Really it's a tough call, but Lagosians need to make a choice.
Below is the opinion of a nearly 70 yr-old man, who has had the chance of knowing both JK and AA.

JK was our (group of then AC supporters) choice in 2007, but BRF was the choice of the powers that be. We have seen what BRF did in Lagos. Do you think if BRF was aligned to the Federal government, he would not have performed better?
AA was my student in UNILAG. His record is very hard to beat - straight As in both WASC and HSC, topped up with a 1st class B.Sc degre in accounting, M.Sc also. By the way, he graduated at 21, and at 24 he was already chartered, etc. I was already a HOD at UNILAG when he got his B.Sc in 1984. AA worked for both BAT and BRF without blemish (forget about any campaign of calumny against him, they are not true). AA was the one who saved Lagos State financially when OBJ was seriously making Lagos financially handicapped etc. In fact BRF did not want AA to go when he wanted to retire. 
In short, both AA and JK are good, but AA is miles ahead, cortical and administrative considerations. 
AA had been Accountant at Lagos State Water Dev. Board; Treasurer at Badagry, Alimosho, Mushin, & Ajeromi-Ifelodun Local Governments; before being appointed Auditor-General for Local Governments at 37. In 2005 he was appointed PS of d Finance ministry. By the following year he became Accountant General/Permanent Secretary. He voluntarily retired in 2012 at 49 (most likely because he had his eyes set on 'higher grounds'). JK on the other hand, had only managed two pharmacies before.
Please consider the above, in addition to the points raised by yourselves and vote AA/APC.
