I’m ready for APC Primaries – Ambode declares
Lagos State Governor Akinwunmi Ambode has said he’s ready to run in the All Progressive Congress (APC) Lagos State gubernatorial primaries for a chance to represent the party.
Ambode revealed this through a statement released by the state’s Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Kehinde Bamigbetan.
The primaries, slated for Saturday, September 29, will see Ambode run against Jide Sanwo-Olu, who has been approved by all the Local Government chairmen and PSP operators in Lagos.
Ambode said:
As our great party approaches Saturday, September 29, 2018, earmarked for the direct primary election to choose the candidate to fly our party’s gubernatorial flag at the next general election, I am happy to restate my commitment to participate in that process, having procured and submitted my nomination form and having formally declared my intention to seek a second term to continue on the path of unprecedented growth and development that our State has witnessed since 2015.
