This is upon the claims of by supporters that Asiwaju Bola Tinubu single handedly built Lagos State to become the commercial hub that it is today.
Supporters of Tinubu while marketing their candidate, often credit all the achievements of the state to the APC flag bearer.
However, Nigerians have opposed the claims by the APC candidate’s supporters with some mocking them of taking the achievements of Ambode in office to Tinubu.
GWG reports that the issue of passing off the achievements of Ambode to Tinubu is particularly sensitive for some given the acrimony that led to the two former governors parting ways after the former was not allowed for a second term in office.
However, supporters of Tinubu feel that the APC presidential candidate is entitled to take credit for the achievements of Ambode on the strength of the claim that Tinubu is the architect of modern Lagos, Babatude Fashola who succeeded him was the actualiser while Ambode was referred to as the consolidator.
GWG gathered some tweets on the issue:

While #OBIDIENTS are spreading the achievements of @PeterObi all around, Tinubu boys are dubiously giving Tinubu credits for projects that Ambode executed. It took Lagos 16 years to start seeing some normalcy from the mess that Tinubu institutionalized. Don’t be deceived!

If Tinubu was young,strong and healthy when he was the governor of Lagos state and did nothing only to boast with the work of GovFashola,@AkinwunmiAmbode,@jidesanwoolu in the name of blueprint.
Is it now that he is so old and weak that he will do something?Tinubu supporters abeg— FOR A BETTER NIGERIA (@FORABETTERNIGE4) August 15, 2022
Tinubu didn't build Lagos, Fashola and Ambode performed excellently far better than him… The plan to turn Nigeria Treasury for one man enjoyment will fail. Nigeria is bigger than Lagos State. pic.twitter.com/Vcqb0bO1yO
