President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has endorsed Lagos State Deputy Governor, Obafemi Hamzat, as the All Progressives Congress governorship candidate for the 2027 election
The endorsement followed a closed-door meeting held on Wednesday at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, where members of the party’s Governance Advisory Council, led by its chairman, Tajudeen Olusi, formally presented Hamzat to the President.
Speaking with journalists after the meeting, Hamzat confirmed that the council had introduced him to Tinubu, who subsequently approved both his candidacy and the council’s choice.
“These are fathers, they are leaders, they’ve seen a lot of Christmases, they’ve seen a lot of Eid El Kabir, so they have experience, and therefore I’m really, really excited that they brought me here to meet Mr President, and Mr President has blessed us and blessed the decision of GAC”, he said.
