Ambode denies 2027 governorship bid under ADC

Former Lagos State Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode, has reaffirmed his loyalty to the All Progressives Congress, APC, and pledged support for President Bola Tinubu’s re-election in 2027.

Ambode, in a statement on Friday, dismissed speculations linking him to a governorship ambition under the African Democratic Congress, ADC. He described such claims as “false publications” aimed at causing distractions.

“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 Tinubu, my leader, mentor, and a tireless champion for Nigeria’s progress,” Ambode said.

He praised Tinubu as a “proven achiever and result-oriented leader” who has implemented reforms in pensions, student loan accessibility, youth empowerment, and economic growth.

Ambode also highlighted the elimination of fuel scarcity, enhanced security measures, and policies aimed at improving citizens’ lives. “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 stated.

Calling on party members and Nigerians to ignore political distractions, Ambode stressed: “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.”
