Breaking: Sanwo-Olu Gets Backing Of Lagos GAC For Second Term

Lagos State Governance Advisory Council on Monday has supported the state governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu for the second term in office.

The seal of approval came in at a meeting this afternoon at the State House, Marina.

The GAC is the apex body within the state ruling political class of the All Progressives Congress

With the APC governorship election primaries slated for May 27, the speculation on whether Sanwo-Olu will get a second term has become rife among the business and political elites in the state, especially members of the APC.

Governor Sanwo-Olu has not picked his nomination forms for the election apparently waiting for the official endorsement of the party chieftains.

It would be recalled that his predecessor, Mr Akinwumi Ambode failed to secure a second term in office because he fell out of favour with the party structure and GAC members despite the popular sentiments that he performed very well enough in office to deserve a second term.
