In a statement released on Friday, Ambode dismissed as “false publications” recent claims linking him to a governorship ambition under the African Democratic Congress (ADC), insisting the reports were aimed at causing distractions.
“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.
He hailed Tinubu’s leadership as result-oriented and impactful, citing reforms in pensions, student loans, youth empowerment, and economic growth. Ambode also pointed to the administration’s achievements in eliminating fuel scarcity, improving security, and implementing policies to better the lives of 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,” he added.
The former governor urged party members and citizens to remain united behind the APC, promising to work tirelessly to secure victory for Tinubu in 2027.
Ambode’s public declaration comes amid increasing political repositioning ahead of the next general elections, reinforcing his position as a loyal ally of the President.
