Mr Jimi Agbaje, the 2015 Lagos State governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, on Wednesday ended speculations about his re-run bid, saying he was back in the race.

Agbaje made the confirmation via a telephone interview with the News Agency of Nigeria in Lagos.

“It is true that initially I did not want to re-contest, but I had so many people urging me to run.

“I bought and submitted my nomination form shortly before it closed. I will be part of the PDP Lagos governorship primaries, billed for Friday, September 28th, “ he said.

Agbaje said that he was confident he would win the elections in Lagos state, if he picked the PDP guber ticket to run.

On the upcoming primaries, Agbaje said he was confident that the leadership would create a level playing ground for all the aspirants, as has been the norm of the party.

“Our primaries have always been open, fair and free for all.

“This is what we are known for, and that is the way I expect it to be,” he said.

Agbaje, who also contested for the National Chairmanship of the PDP in 2017, won by Uche Secondus, said that the recent defections from the party in the state would not affect him if he picked the ticket.

“It is the people of Lagos State that will decide. The issues in the party will not impact negatively on votes.

“Most Nigerians now vote for individuals rather than party,” he said.

Everybody loves Jimi Agbaje.

Lets put that to the test again

Baba no waste money...

Suggestion: you and Ambode collabo form a new party

This guy has NEVER won any elective position in his life, including his last two quests to become the gov of Lag, and the Chairman of PDP. I bet you, he won't even win the primaries this time. I am very sure, our neigbours from across Niger will jump into this and make him win on NAIRALAND already. Let him waste more monies biko, that's the beauty of democracy.

Look at his head like that of his IPOB supporters! He is never tired of loosing. Ibo people can not install you as Lagos governor, keep wasting your money and efforts.

To be honest, I like this guy.

With all this rift with Jagaban and Ambode in APC let see whether your personality will hold ground in Lagos . He should also know he is not battling with APC but With Thieftunubu.

Cousin.

You've been too quiet Oga Jimi.

If only you'd been active and all these APC Tinubu saga came up, you'd have a chance, it only seems you want to take a chance because you think they are divided and you just might nick it, not that you really want to govern anymore.

Anyways, all na sef interest. Good luck sire

The man that should have won in 2015. see how Tinubu is toying around a whole governor of a state. Shame on Ambode

U think the problem btwn Ambode and Tinubu will give u upper hand this time to win.

U are joke, I implore ur family and friends to warn u because this might lead to hypertension when u lose again.
