After four years of political estrangement with his godfather, a former Lagos State Governor, Mr Akinwunmi Ambode, on Friday visited President Bola Tinubu.at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

The closed-door meeting comes after the President met with Ambode at the state reception organised for him by Lagos Gov. Babajide Sanwo-Olu on June 29.

Persecondnews recalls that the banquet had afforded Ambode the opportunity of meeting with his estranged godfather, Tinubu, since he was denied the second term ticket in 2019.

The return of Ambode to the mainstream of Lagos politics began with Sanwo-Olu’s visit to his predecessor’s home to celebrate his 60th birthday on June 14.

Persecondnews gathered that President Tinubu might be considering Ambode for an appointment in his government.

It is believed that the meeting must have centered on the engagement of Ambode, a chartered accountant.

Also on Friday, President Tinubu received in audience the Kaduna State Governor, Sen. Uba Sani.
