Sanwo-Olu
Lagos State governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu, on Monday was endorsed for the second term in office by the Governance Advisory Council (GAC).
GAC is the Apex body of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in Lagos State.
Nigerian Tribune gathered from a source that the seal of approval came at a meeting held by the body this afternoon at the State House, Marina.
Ahead of APC governorship election primaries slated for May 27, the endorsement has put to rest speculations about whether or not Governor Sanwo-Olu will get a second term, as such had become rife among the business and political elites in the state, especially members of the ruling party.
Meanwhile, Governor Sanwo-Olu has not picked his nomination forms for the election apparently waiting for the official endorsement of the party chieftains, while it is also apparent that no other aspirant on APC platform had so far shown interest to contest the seat with him.
His predecessor, Mr Akinwumi Ambode, it would be recalled, failed to secure a second term in office because he fell out of favour with the party structure and GAC members.
