Lagos Ndigbo Endorse Ambode For 2nd Term by WisdomFlakes: 10:04am On Mar 08, 2018
THE Igbo Vision in the All Progressives Congress, APC, yesterday endorsed Governor Akinwumi Ambode to pilot the state affairs for the next four years.

Speaking at a stakeholders meeting, the Publicity Secretary of APC in Lagos State, Mr. Joe Igbokwe said Igbo people in Lagos had resolved to once again support Governor Ambode to in the 2019 governorship election.

Igbokwe noted that Igbo people had seen the transformation going on across the state which has silenced the opposition adding that “in recognition of his hard work, we are going to come out in millions to support him once again through voting.”

He said: “I know that the Igbo, under the aegis of Igbo Vision, supported Ambode to become governor in the face of victimisation but they have not been recognised for their loyalty. Today, I want to assure you that our Governor did not forget the Igbo, you will be rewarded at appropriate time.”

“Government does not share money; it can only impact the society through its developmental project of which Ambode stands out. We have seen physical developments across Lagos and the ongoing transformation in Ladipo market is one among numerous ongoing projects to make life better for Lagosians. We are pleased with this and we want it to continue.”

Corroborating his view, Vice President, Association of Ndieze Igbo in Diaspora Worldwide, Uche Dimgba said that they have commenced sensitization of all Igbo in Lagos that do not have voters card to make sure they get it.

“We also encourage those that have voters card to come out and vote for Ambode in recognition of his selfless service to the development of Lagos State. Lagos State is our home and this is where we have majority of our investment”, Dimgba said.

I don't buy this endorsement because majority of Lagos Igbos always support PDP. Which is too bad because PDP is a no-go area in Lagos, and as of today it has showed itself to be a regional party with anti-Yoruba tendencies. undecided

See O, Igbo people endorsing Ambode!
Ambode that's being unpopular by the day amongst Lagosians and Yorubas in Lagos generally because of his tax and sundry policies.

Well, let's see.
I know you people endorsed Jimi the last time and he lost.

Ambode beware of Igbo endorsement in Lagos.

Inspite of their opposition, he was elected.

Now the irrelevant is looking for relevance, after declaring him enemy of Ndigbo in the early years of his regime as a follow up to the opposition at the governorship polls, that still did not stop a moving train from mauling all that lie in its path.

You are correct. They know that with or without their votes he will still win, so it only makes sense for at least the igbokwe group to support him. It is similar to the same way some clever igbo politicians are also supporting Buhari reelection because they can see the hand writing on the wall. I have to say the igbokwe guy is very clever.

Maybe when umunna'm hear the implications of the Land Use Charge, they'll have a re-think.
Of all the good things Ambode has done in Lagos state, this Land Use Charge might just be his biggest Achille's heel and a stumbling block to his re-election

they are afraid,the odds during elections usually favor the incumbent. Scared so he doesn't come and demolish their houses tomorrow. But in reality Ambode has done nothing for the majority of Lagosians.

how is ambode getting unpopular. you with egg brain will just sign in here to split thrash, I know you're ain't Yoruba but here you're forcing yourself to be Yoruba spokesman, only because ambode is building the recognition of Yoruba in Lagos


what next I expect ambode to include in lagos constitution, any politicians that can't express Yoruba fluently should not be given opportunity to contest in a party primary election

either Igbo endorse him or Hausa deny him, he will win the next election, their endorsement has no effect
