Akinwunmi Ambode Campaign Organisation has said former Governor of Lagos State, Akinwunmi Ambode, is planning on challenging his successor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, for the Lagos All Progressives Congress governorship ticket.
The chairman of AMCO and former Commissioner for Energy and Mineral resources, Wale Oluwo, said AMbode will pick up his governorship form next week.
This is as he revealed that Ambode has got a structure on ground to the effect despite him being silent all this while after Sanwo-Olu defeated him to win the All Progressives Congress’s governorship ticket in 2019.
Oluwo said, “Ambode is seriously interested in what happens in Lagos in 2023 and that “interest aligns with the expectation of the people. We will lead people to their expectations.”
On how Ambode would displace Sanwo-Olu, Oluwo said, “Ambode might have been silent but he is very effective in organising AMCO and his people. The result of that will be seen very soon.
“You don’t need a federal appointment to fight for your space in your state. You just need the right strategy and funding. AMCO is not bereft of that. AMCO is a major group in APC, we will participate in the election and be victorious by the grace of God.
“We are back to implement the change we desired in 2019. Our people have been collecting the nomination forms. Making noise about the forms collected doesn’t add any value to your form. We will collect governorship form next week.”
