The National Leader of All Progressive Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, and other stakeholders of the state chapter of the party have officially endorsed Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu and his Deputy, Obafemi Hamzat, for another term in office.
The decision was taken after an APC Stakeholders meeting held at the Lagos House in Ikeja.
The APC presidential aspirant formally raised the hands of Sanwo-Olu and Hamzat, endorsing them for another term in office contrary to insinuations that he is favouring some other people.
There had been rumours over the last few days of an alleged plan by the Leadership of the APC in the State to deny the governor and his deputy another shot at leading Lagos State like his predecessor, Akinwunmi Ambode.
A retired Former Permanent Secretary in the Lagos State Civil Service, Hamed Mustapha, was rumoured to be the anointed candidate of the party Leadership not minding his initial endorsement by the highest decision making body in the State APC, Governance Advisory Council, GAC.
