2019 election: What I’ll do for Buhari, Sanwo-Olu – Gov. Ambode

The Governor of Lagos State, Akinwunmi Ambode, has promised to
campaign vigorously for President Muhammadu Buhari and the All
Progressives Congress, APC, governorship candidate of the state,
Babajide Sanwo-Olu.

Ambode addressed reporters at the presidential wing of the Murtala
Muhammed International Airport shortly after he accompanied Buhari to
perform the official commissioning of the new Economic Community of
West African States (ECOWAS) Seme-Krake joint border post in Badagry
on Tuesday.

The Governor said it is important for the APC to retain its leadership
positions both at the federal and state levels.

"I have just accompanied Mr President to the Nigerian-Benin Border
Post. So what we have commissioned today is a joint Border Patrol post
between Nigeria and the Republic of Benin and it is called Semo-Krake
Border Post," he told reporters.

"But again, just to also use this opportunity to let Lagosians know
that 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 APC retains Lagos State and the centre."
