2019 ELECTIONS: AMBODE ASSURES SANWO-OLU, BUHARI OF VICTORY
Speaking at the Presidential Wing of the Murtala Muhammed International Airport shortly after he accompanied Buhari to perform the inauguration of the new Economic Community of West African States border posts at Seme-Krake in Badagry, Ambode stated that, it was important for the APC to retain its leadership positions both at the federal and state levels.
“We are heavily committed to the re-election of Mr President and you can see that his continuous visit to Lagos reiterates the fact that he is actually a lover of Lagos State and I am committed to ensuring his re-election.
“We are going to campaign heavily for him. I am also committed to ensuring that the APC wins the governorship election come 2019. We support the candidacy of Babajide Sanwo-Olu and we will make sure that the APC retains Lagos State and the centre,” Ambode said.
Earlier, Ambode had received President Buhari at the airport before the duo proceeded to Seme, where the President joined his Republic of Benin counterpart, Patrice Talon, to inaugurate the border posts.
