The Lagos State Council of Progressive Baales has thrown its weight behind the re-election bid of President Bola Tinubu, saying their endorsement was informed by the need to continue the reforms he started in various sectors to reposition the nation’s economy.
Speaking on behalf of the Council, the Coordinator, Baale Olowonifela, Chief Doherty Adeniyi, also passionately canvassed for the return of former Lagos State Governor, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode, to continue his legacy of impactful governance.
The Baales, while throwing their support, urged Nigerians not to allow ongoing economic reforms and restructuring efforts to be disrupted, saying that the current reforms across key sectors must be given adequate time to gain traction and succeed.
They emphasized that their call was rooted in the collective desire of traditional leaders who have remained close to the grassroots and deeply connected to the pulse of the people.
According to Chief Adeniyi, the strides recorded under Ambode’s administration remained indelible, visible in infrastructural transformation, security enhancement, environmental renewal, and improved public service delivery across communities in Lagos State.
He noted that the philosophy of continuity, long championed by Asiwaju Tinubu, had been instrumental in shaping Lagos into a model of progressive governance in Nigeria, stressing that this enduring vision must not only be preserved but strengthened through the return of tested and trusted leadership.
The Council extolled Ambode as a silent achiever, a meticulous planner, and a visionary leader whose tenure brought about landmark developments that touched both urban and rural communities alike.
It added that his people-oriented policies, prudent management of resources, and commitment to excellence earned him admiration far beyond political lines.
The traditional rulers described Ambode as a bridge-builder and a symbol of responsible leadership—one who governs with humility, listens with empathy, and acts with purpose.
They reaffirmed that his return would not only consolidate past achievements but also usher in a new phase of accelerated growth and inclusive development.
Reiterating their stance, the Council called on all well-meaning Lagosians, stakeholders, and members of the progressive family to align with this vision of continuity and progress, even as it urged unity of purpose, peaceful engagement, and unwavering support for leadership that has proven capacity and a track record of excellence.
