Ambode’s achievements during his previous term in office have not gone unnoticed. He implemented various initiatives that positively impacted the lives of Lagos residents, including massive infrastructure development. His administration also established the Lagos State Neighborhood Safety Agency, which collaborated with federal police and other security outfits to ensure a safe Lagos State.
The call for Ambode to join the 2027 governorship race is not limited to the LRA. Other groups, including the Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC), have also expressed their support for Ambode’s candidacy. MURIC has disclosed that Muslims in Lagos State are yearning for one of their own to become governor in 2027.
The APC stakeholders in Lagos have stressed the need for the party to give its governorship ticket to Ambode, citing his impressive track record and the massive development he brought to the state during his previous term in office. With the 2027 governorship election approaching, whether Ambode will heed the call to join the race remains to be seen.
