The Lagos East Movement heartily congratulates Dr. Kadri Obafemi Hamzat (KOH) on his emergence as the Governorship Candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Lagos State for the 2027 gubernatorial election, and Princess Damilola Sonayon James (DSJ) on her emergence as the Deputy Governorship Candidate of our great party.
This historic ticket represents a significant milestone in the progressive journey of Lagos State. It reflects the party’s commitment to competence, continuity, inclusiveness, and the development of future leaders who possess the vision and capacity to sustain the remarkable achievements of the APC administration in Lagos State.
Dr. Kadri Obafemi Hamzat has consistently demonstrated exceptional leadership, administrative excellence, and unwavering dedication to the development of Lagos State. His track record in public service, coupled with his deep understanding of governance and policy implementation, positions him as a worthy standard-bearer for the APC ahead of the 2027 elections.
Similarly, the emergence of Princess Damilola Sonayon James as the Deputy Governorship Candidate is a testament to the growing recognition of the vital role that women and young people continue to play in governance and political leadership. Her nomination has inspired renewed confidence among young people and women across Lagos State, further strengthening the APC’s reputation as a party that rewards merit, capacity, and commitment.
The Lagos East Movement particularly extends its profound appreciation to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, whose visionary leadership and longstanding commitment to youth empowerment, women inclusion, and leadership development continue to shape the future of progressive politics in Nigeria. His unwavering belief in creating opportunities for emerging leaders has once again been demonstrated through the emergence of this balanced and forward-looking ticket.
We also commend the leadership of the All Progressives Congress at the national and state levels for promoting inclusiveness and ensuring that the aspirations of young people and women are adequately reflected in the party’s leadership structure and electoral choices. The nomination of Princess Damilola Sonayon James sends a powerful message that the APC remains committed to building a political system where every demographic group has a seat at the table.
As a movement committed to the advancement of Lagos East and the continued progress of Lagos State, we pledge our total support to the KOH/DSJ ticket and assure the candidates of our readiness to mobilize support across communities, stakeholders, youths, women groups, and grassroots structures towards securing a resounding victory for the APC in the 2027 gubernatorial election.
We are confident that under the leadership of Dr. Kadri Obafemi Hamzat and Princess Damilola Sonayon James, Lagos State will continue to witness unprecedented growth, innovation, economic prosperity, and inclusive governance.
Once again, congratulations to our candidates, and we wish them wisdom, strength, and success as they embark on this important journey of service to the people of Lagos State.
