The Chief of Staff to the President and former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, has declared support for the Lagos State governorship ambition of Deputy Governor Obafemi Hamzat.
Gbajabiamila gave the endorsement while responding to Hamzat’s consultation visit, expressing confidence in his competence and readiness to lead the state.
He described the deputy governor as a capable leader, adding that Lagos would remain in safe hands under his leadership.
“Dr Hamzat, you’re a man of honour, and it shows by not taking things for granted, judging by this consultation move.
“But I am saying it publicly that you can take me for granted because I have confidence in your ability and capacity. So, take my support for granted.
“My constituency, Surulere, is for you and Lagos is for you,” he said.
Earlier, a member of the Governor’s Advisory Council, GAC, Musiliu Obanikoro, briefed the gathering on the extent of consultations carried out by Hamzat’s camp, noting that the level of endorsement received so far had been significant.
“I can confidently tell the Chief of Staff to President Bola Tinubu that the level of endorsement has been overwhelming,” he stated.
Members of Hamzat’s delegation included the Secretary of the GAC, Alhaji Muti Are; Senator Ganiyu Olanrewaju Solomon; Bode Oyedele; Engineer Adekunle Olayinka; and Dr Hakeem Shittu.
Others present were Saheed Kekereekun, Dr Jebe, and Rasaq Ajala, among others.
