Former Lagos State Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode, has reaffirmed his commitment to the All Progressives Congress (APC) and declared his full support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s 2027 re-election bid.

In a statement issued on Friday, Ambode dismissed media reports suggesting he was planning a governorship run under the African Democratic Congress (ADC), describing the claims as “false publications” meant to distract the public.
“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.
Ambode commended Tinubu as a “proven achiever and result-oriented leader” who has implemented reforms in pensions, student loan accessibility, youth empowerment, and economic growth.
He also highlighted the administration’s achievements in ending fuel scarcity, improving national security, and introducing policies to uplift ordinary Nigerians.
“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.
The former governor called on APC members and Nigerians to ignore political distractions and remain united ahead of the 2027 general elections.
“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,” he added.
