Funmi Ogundare
A political group, The Renewal Group, has endorsed President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for re-election in 2027 and also backed the candidacy of Lagos State Deputy Governor, Dr. Obafemi Hamzat, for the governorship of Lagos State.
Convener of the group, Lai Omotola, announced the endorsement at a press briefing in Lagos, Tuesday, where he said the decision followed extensive consultations and deliberations among members.
Omotola said the group’s support for Tinubu was based largely on the principle of rotational presidency, arguing that since it is currently the turn of the South to produce the president, the region should be allowed to complete its tenure.
