Former Lagos State Governor Akinwunmi Ambode has dismissed reports linking him to a governorship run on the African Democratic Congress (ADC) platform, reaffirming his allegiance to the APC and President Bola Tinubu.
In a personally signed statement, Ambode described Tinubu as his “leader, mentor, and a tireless champion for Nigeria’s progress”, lauding the President’s reforms in pensions, student loans, youth empowerment, and economic growth.
“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,” Ambode declared.
Ambode, governor from 2015 to 2019, lost his re-election bid after the APC’s leadership backed current Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
