The Lagos State governorship candidate of the Allied Peoples Movement, Laja Adeoye, says Lagos residents deserve better leadership and new ideas ahead of the 2027 elections.

Adeoye stated this on Thursday while formally declaring his governorship ambition at Ward F5, Ejigbo, in Oshodi-Isolo Local Government Area of Lagos State.

The former PDP governorship aspirant, aligned with Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde-backed PDP faction before he moved to APM, said residents had become tired of what he called the excuses of the ruling APC.

“The truth is that Lagos residents are tired. They have seen the ideas and style of governance since 1999, and they are yearning for something new.

“The people want fresh ideas, fresh faces, fresh leadership, and a fresh governor. That is what I represent.
