Lagos Apc Reps Endorsed Gov Ambode For The Second Term In Office by Abiodunstephen(m): 7:48am On Feb 18, 2018 |
Members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the
House of Representatives from Lagos State on Saturday
endorsed Gov. Akinwunmi Ambode for a second term in
office.
The APC caucus in the House, led by the Majority Leader,
Mr Femi Gbajabiamila, presented a letter to the governor
at the Lagos House in Alausa, Ikeja, asking him to re-
contest in 2019.
Gbajabiamila said the decision to unanimously endorse
Ambode for a second term was as a result of his brilliant
performance in office in the last two and a half years.
Gbajabiamila said the lawmakers were proud to be
associated with the achievements of the governor so far,
and would be supporting him all the way for another term
in office.
“ We are members of the House of Representatives APC
caucus from Lagos State.
“We all came into Lagos today to perform a very unique
and sacred duty; something we did not take very lightly at
all; something we deliberated over a couple of days ago
and we spoke with one voice.
“Because of the giant strides of our amiable governor in
the last two and a half years in governing the state, we sat
together and we decided without a dissenting voice to seek
his audience and endorse him for re-election in 2019 as the
governor of Lagos State, ” he said.
The House Leader described the endorsement as history
repeating itself, as the caucus was the first to endorse the
governor for election in 2015.
He said it was instructive that there was not a single
dissenting voice in the decision to support Gov. Ambode
for re-election.
Gbajabiamila urged the governor to see the endorsement
as a call to do more for the people of the state, come
2019.
Responding, Ambode thanked the federal legislators for
the honour done to him, saying the endorsement would
spur him to do more for the people.
“ I am greatly humbled to receive the APC caucus in the
House of Representatives from Lagos State.
“I am more delighted that this word of encouragement by
way of this letter is to inspire me further to continue to
render service to the good people of Lagos.
“I want to thank you so much for the honour you have
done me; I receive it with all humility and I pray that God
gives us the grace to actually honour all the letters and the
words in this message,” Ambode said.
