Former Lagos State Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode, has dismissed reports suggesting he is eyeing a return to the governorship seat under the platform of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), describing them as “false publications” aimed at causing distractions.
In a statement on Friday, Ambode reaffirmed his “absolute and unshakable loyalty” to the All Progressives Congress (APC) and to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, whom he described as “my leader, mentor, and a tireless champion for Nigeria’s progress.”
He praised the president’s achievements in pension reform, student loan accessibility, youth empowerment, economic growth, improved security, and the elimination of fuel scarcity.
“His focus, determination, and inclusive governance style are restoring hope and delivering tangible results,” Ambode said, adding that Nigerians will have “even greater reason to celebrate” if Tinubu is given another four years.
The former governor urged party members and the public to ignore political distractions, pledging to work towards APC’s victory in the 2027 elections to “continue delivering the dividends of democracy to all Nigerians.”
