Dr Obafemi Hamzat, who secured the All Progressives Congress nomination for the 2027 Lagos governorship election, has expressed gratitude and framed the victory as a responsibility.

Hamzat made this claim in a statement shared on social media on Saturday.

“My wife, Oluremi, and I visited His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to present the official results of the Lagos APC gubernatorial primary,” Hamzat said on Saturday.

“I remain deeply grateful for the trust placed in me. Securing the party’s nomination for the 2027 governorship election is both an honour and a profound responsibility,” he said.

He pledged continued work toward improving life in the state, emphasising economic growth and opportunities for young people.

“We are working every single day to ensure that our state remains a place where every family can thrive, every business can grow, and every young person can find real opportunities,” Hamzat added.

He described the public’s support as both energising and motivating.

“The energy and trust you have placed in this vision mean everything to us. The journey ahead is about turning that shared hope into meaningful progress for everyone,” he said.
