The hope of the incumbent governor of Lagos State, Mr Akinwunmi Ambode of grabbing the gubernatorial ticket of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state may have been dashed.
This is because a fellow gubernatorial aspirant on the same APC platform, Dr. Femi Hamzat, has withdrawn from the race.
Hamzat, who spoke during a press conference in Lagos on Saturday, said he took the decision to support the ambition of another aspirant, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
He also directed his supporters to cast their votes for Sanwo-Olu during the party’s primary tomorrow.
According to him, he can vouch for Sanwo-Olu’s integrity and personal intelligence.
Sanwo-Olu, who was also at the event, will, tomorrow contest the party’s gubernatorial ticket with the incumbent governor, Akinwunmi Ambode.
