Former Lagos State Governor Akinwumi Ambode has reportedly joined the Labour Party, Weetalknaija.com.ng report.
There is mixed reaction among Nigerians following the rumour that the former Lagos State Governor Akinwumi Ambode has joined The Labour Party to contest for the state’s Lagos governorship election in 2023.
Nigerian youths across parties and regions are urging him to take the chance, saying he will retire the stranglehold of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Lagos State.
Labour Party has gathered steam ever since the former Anambra State Governor, Mr. Peter Gregory Onwubuasi Obi, joined the party and emerged Labour Party candidate for the 2023 presidential election.

Former Governor of Lagos, Akinwunmi Ambode's decision to join Labour Party should not be laughed off. He is very popular in Lagos East and he will definitely get a lot of the Obidients vote next year…. Stranger things have happened. Winning is another matter.

The reactions gracing the news of Ambode picking Labour Party ticket suggests that these coconut head generation really want to sack Tinubu from politics completely.

A lot of Lagosians loved Ambode during his tenure. They were also quite unhappy when the Lagos cabal ousted him for not playing party politics. If it's true that he's contesting under Labour party, people would vote massively to remove APC from power in Lagos. Sanwo-Olu prepare.

If Akinwunmi Ambode should declare to run as Governor under Labour party today, Sanwo Olu will leave his home work in Osun state and return to Lagos before the day runs out
