2027: Lagosians Make Case For Ambode’s Candidacy In Lagos

Residents of Lagos have urged the former Governor of the state, Akinwumi Ambode, to run for governor in the 2027 general elections. They say he has the Midas touch to transform the state if given a second chance to complete the good job he started.

It would be recalled that Ambode, who governed the state from 2015-2019, lost the ticket of his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), under controversial circumstances during the primary election, a development that denied him a second term in office.

Residents of the nation’s commercial nerve centre, under the aegis of the Lagos Residents Association (LRA), in a statement by its President General, Dr. Olumuyiwa Adesanmi, urged the All Progressives Congress (APC) Lagos State chapter to give its governorship ticket to the former governor.

He said it is Ambode’s constitutional right to seek a second term and that the circumstances under which he lost the party’s ticket for a second term were suspicious.

The group, therefore, urged the former governor to join in the race to succeed the incumbent governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, whose second term in office will end in 2027.

He said, “Former Gov Ambode enjoys humongous support among residents of Lagos whose lives he touched positively while in office. We all understand how he lost his bid for a second term in office, and it was not on the grounds of performance.

“The legacy he left behind in human capital development, infrastructure and total transformation of Lagos is still there for all to see.

“We residents of the state are solidly behind him and calling him to come back and complete what he has started in our dear state”, the group states.

It has also volunteered to purchase the governing APC’s nomination and expression of interest forms to contest the election.
