Ex- Governor of Lagos State, Akunwunmi Ambode has reacted to rumours linking to nursing another gubernatorial ambitions in the state.
He has also stated that he is solidly standing behind President Bola Tinubu’s 2027 re-election campaign.
Amode made the reactions via a statement he released today, describing as false, report of his being interested in becoming governor come 2027 under the platform of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) 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 Ahmed Tinubu, my leader, mentor, and a tireless champion for Nigeria’s progress,” Ambode said. 
Describing the rumours as false, Ambode described Tinubu as a proven achiever and result-oriented leader who has achieved significant reforms in his first term.
“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,” Ambode stated.
Rallying support for the president come 2027, Ambode stated:
“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,”
Ambode’s declaration comes amid growing political realignments ahead of the 2027 general elections, with the former governor making it clear that his political loyalty remains firmly with the APC and its leader.
