The group affirmed that President Tinubu has demonstrated that he is a leader that was prepared to lead the country to massive wealth creation, economic growth and national unity.

The group in a statement by its Publicity Secretary, Dr. Sylvester Oguntuase, emphasized that it solidly stands behind the call for the return of Ambode, who is the first governor of Lagos state to rule only one term since the return of democracy in 1999.

They said while Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has consolidated on the achievements of Ambode who handed over to him in 2019, it is time for Ambode to have his fair share in the Lagos Government House in the spirit of fairness maintaining that he remains one of the best governors to have ruled the state since creation.

“We are unequivocally saying that both President Tinubu and Ambode are unapologetically our choices for 2027. The reason is simply – they have both demonstrated what good leadership is all about. What the President is doing now with regards to turning around the economy, massive infrastructure development, security and job creation is what we want and we are supporting continuity in 2027.

“Ambode, a fine gentleman, a patriot and a true party man who has remained loyal to his party despite injustices should be recognised and rewarded. It can only begin with offering him the right to first refusal of APC governorship ticket in Lagos 2027. We are committed to mobilising our members and entire Lagosians to back these two candidates who have indeed made us proud,” the group said.

They called on the people of Lagos State and Nigerians to support Ambode and Tinubu to continue the noble projects they have started.
