Former Lagos State Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode, has reaffirmed his commitment to All Progressives Congress (APC) and endorsed President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s re-election bid in 2027.
Gatekeepers News reports that in a statement on Friday, Ambode dismissed claims linking him to a governorship aspiration under the African Democratic Congress (ADC), describing them as false publications aimed at causing unnecessary distractions.
He said, “I wish to publicly reaffirm my absolute and unshakable loyalty to the APC, the party under which I had the privilege of serving Lagos state as governor in 2015, and to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, my leader, mentor, and a tireless champion for Nigeria’s progress.”
Praising Tinubu as a “proven achiever and results-driven leader,” Ambode credited the president’s administration with implementing notable reforms in pensions, expanding access to student loans, empowering young people, and driving economic growth.
The former Governor also highlighted the elimination of fuel scarcity, improved security, and people-focused policies as evidence of Tinubu’s effective governance.
He said, “His focus, determination, and inclusive governance style are restoring hope and delivering tangible results. I am convinced that, given another four years, Nigerians will have even greater reason to celebrate.”
He urged Nigerians and APC members to disregard political distractions, affirming, “Let it be clear: I stand solidly with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress. We will work together to ensure victory in 2027 to continue delivering the dividends of democracy to all Nigerians.”
