Whispers of a political resurgence are growing louder as talks suggest former Lagos State Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode, may be on the verge of securing a top-tier political appointment. The speculation, which has gained traction in political circles and on social media, comes amid reports of reconciliation moves within the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
Ambode, who served as governor from 2015 to 2019, left office amid internal party disputes that cost him a second term. However, recent developments indicate a potential thaw in relationships with key party stakeholders. Sources close to the former governor revealed that he has been holding discreet meetings with some influential figures, sparking speculation of a possible return to the corridors of power.
Political analysts argue that Ambode’s administrative track record, particularly his infrastructural strides in Lagos, makes him a strong candidate for a Federal job.
While Ambode has remained tight-lipped about the rumours, his recent increased public appearances and subtle engagements with party loyalists suggest he may be positioning himself for a strategic comeback.
For now, Nigerians watch closely, as the prospect of Akinwunmi Ambode’s return to active politics could reshape narratives within the APC and the nation at large.
