Ahead of next month’s governorship primary of the Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC), House of Representatives member, Hon. James Faleke, representing Ikeja Federal Constituency, has declared support for the incumbent Deputy Governor, Dr. Kadir Obafemi Hamzat.
Aside from that, Faleke, who is the Chairman, House of Representatives Committee on Finance, has instructed his supporters to cast their votes for Hamzat, in order to be the party’s flagbearer for the 2027 governorship and possibly succeed Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
The lawmaker declared his support on Friday, barely 24 hours after a delegation from the Governor’s Advisory Council (GAC), the party’s highest advisory body, met with President and National Leader of the ruling APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, in Ikoyi, to discuss key political issues in the state, ahead of the primary exercise.
Faleke, in a statement released through his official social media handle, said: "Good evening all. As we prepare for Party primaries next month, I urge all our supporters in Ikeja Federal Constituency and Lagos State to support Dr. Kadri Obafemi Hamzat as the next Governor of Lagos State from 2027-2035. IJN. Amen!."
