There is a relative calm in the camp of the Lagos state Governor AKINWUNMI AMBODE as a group loyal to the national leader of APC, BOLA TINUBU and all 57 council Chairmen in the state have endorsed former commissioner for Establishment, JIDE SANWOOLU as governorship candidate of the party.
The endorsement came barely forty eight four hours after Governor AMBODE picked his expression of interest and nomination forms at the party’s secretariat in Abuja.
On his return to Lagos after collecting the forms, AMBODE was received by crowd of supporters at the state house, Alausa where he officially declared his intention to run for second term in office.
However at a forum of the leadership of the party, former Commissioner for Agriculture and Cooperatives, KAOLI OLUSANYA said they are throwing their weight behind the choice of their leader, BOLA TINUBU.
Former state Commissioner for Works and Infrastructure, KADRI HAMZAT have also picked the APC expression of interest and nomination forms to contest for the party’s Gubernatorial ticket.
