A former governor of Lagos State, Akinwunmi Ambode, on Thursday broke his silence on the 2027 governorship election with his endorsement of Deputy Governor Obafemi Hamzat.
Ambode’s backing was contained in a statement he personally signed.
“I join my fellow members of the All Progressives Congress to congratulate my brother and friend, Dr. Kadiri Obafemi Hamzat, on his emergence as the consensus governorship candidate of our great party, the APC.
“Your deliberate and purposeful consultations with the party hierarchy and all members of the party have demonstrated you are a true party man committed to the party’s ideals and values of unity and progress,” he said.
