Ex-Lagos Governor, Ambode Breaks Silence on 2023 Elections
Category: Lagos News
Former Lagos Governor Akinwunmi Ambode has broken his long silence ahead of
the 2023 polls.
The 58-year-old governed Lagos from 2015 to 2019 but lost his second term bid to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu at the APC primary.
Although Ambode has not announced his intention to contest any political office in 2023, many are insinuating he may vie for an unknown office.
The former Lagos governor, in a terse statement shared on his verified social media platforms, thanked supporters for the “overwhelming endorsement” over his “modest contributions” to the growth of Lagos.
He said power was in the hands of the youths.
Ambode wrote: “After all we have been through, God has been faithful. Thank you for the overwhelming endorsement of our modest contributions to the growth of Lagos. It can only get better for Lagos, and indeed Nigeria. The youths are coming. The power is in their hands. Go and get your Permanent Voters Card (PVC) ready. Your future is NOW!”
