It’s more trouble for Governor Akinwunmi Ambode, as his deputy, Dr Idiat Oluranti Adebule on Tuesday openly switched her support to Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu, in the race to pick the Lagos State’s governorship ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2019 election.
Adebule told newsmen at Ward A and D, in Iba Local Council Development Area of Lagos where she participated in the governorship primary of the APC, that she would endorse the candidate chosen by the party.
“The party has chosen a man and it is that man that I will support and follow,” she said.
The News agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that when the deputy governor arrived at the ward, some of her aides came with Sanwo-Olu’s posters and banners.
At the ward, accreditation started at about 10.36 a.m. party electoral officials arrived.
There was no formal announcement of the results as the accreditation was brief.
