A prominent chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and seasoned public administrator, Hon. Khairat Animashaun-Ajiboye, has expressed concerns about recent speculations surrounding Seyi Tinubu’s alleged endorsement for the 2027 Lagos governorship election.
The former Lagos State governorship aspirant described the move as an intentional ploy to undermine President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration.
Hon. Animashaun-Ajiboye stated that political manoeuvring and endorsements rooted in youthful enthusiasm or self-interest should not distract from the ongoing governance agenda.
She noted: “President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is working round the clock with his satire team for good and impactful governance in the country and all-inclusive leadership for all and sundry.
“The endorsement campaign is a launch of their youthful exuberance and a plot to undermine President Tinubu.
“For your information, the Lagos APC has distanced itself from the unfolding endorsement drama, insisting that the 2027 governorship election is not on its agenda.
“The focus is on the forthcoming Congress and Local Government Elections in 2025, urging members to prioritize unity and progress.
“This time, Lagos deserves a selfless, younger, and a real Lagosian who can relate to the struggles of the poor, the challenges of the middle class, the hopes of the business community, and the aspirations of partners in progress who want a prosperous Lagos State.”
In 2022, Khairat Animashaun-Ajiboye contested for the Lagos State governorship ticket giving reasons she is best suited to succeed governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
