2019: PDP shops for governorship candidate in Lagos

Wale Elegbede


…considers Agbaje, Doherty, Koshoedo, Dosunmu

Leading opposition party in Lagos State, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), is currently shopping for a governorship candidate ahead of the 2019 elections in the state.


Lagos is the only state which the PDP had not governed in the South-West since the Fourth Republic began in 1999.

New Telegraph exclusively learnt that the party had set up a search party being led by the state chairman, Hon. Moshood Salvador, some notable members of the chapter’s Elders’ Council, zonal ex-Officio, among others, to produce a credible, widely acceptable and popular party man to fly its flag in the next gubernatorial poll.

Governor Akinwunmi Ambode, is expected to seek a second term on the platform of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

A source, however, who preferred to be anonymity, said the party was in a dire need of a candidate that would first be accepted by vested interest in the party and be presentable to Lagosians as an alternative to Ambode.

Joe Igbokwe is more qualified for the post and has more experience than the rest grin

His surname alone will guarantee at least 7 million Igbo votes grin

PDP's best chance to 'capture' Lagos was in 2015 through Jonathan's federal might but they failed. Now that Lagosians have tasted Ambode's sterling performance, they stand zero chance no matter who they present. Besides, the state doesn't need a party like PDP to come and disrupt all the developmental plans on ground in the state. APC doesn't even need federal might to remain in power in Lagos.

If we should follow personality instead of party like u rightly claimed, then I think Ambode has done well even as his party has failed woefully at the center.
PDP shouldn't waste their money because I don't think they have a chance.
The right question now should be, who will they even bring that has 15% popularity without a dirt in his past?

PDP should totally forget about Lagos in 2019. Even if Ambode leaves APC he will win.

Abeg that man don try!

I read in the papers today that the embedded power project of 3000MW will commence next month.
