As Governor Sanwo-Olu’s tenure winds down, political maneuvering intensifies across Lagos State. Key APC figures, including Gbajabiamila, Seyi Tinubu, and Obasa, are generating early buzz as aspirants for the 2027 governorship election.
- Gbajabiamila’s camp pushes his legislative and executive experience as key assets for Lagos leadership.
- Seyi Tinubu gains quiet backing from diaspora groups; father’s silence adds intrigue to speculation.
- Epe, Ikorodu, and Badagry stakeholders demand equitable power rotation after years of perceived marginalization.
“We’re tired of being sidelined,” said an APC member from Ikorodu. “14 days in office isn’t representation. Our district has earned more.” Meanwhile, grassroots leaders in Epe argue it’s time to correct past political injustices after Ambode’s early exit.
Will APC’s power brokers prioritize experience, youth, or regional balance in 2027? As Lagos eyes new leadership, the GAC faces a delicate task: unify a divided base or risk internal fractures?
