The Governor’s Advisory Council (GAC),the highest decision making body of the All Progressives Congress (APC)in Lagos met on Saturday night where it resolved the chapter must hold its primary to determine its governorship candidate.

A former Commissioner for Training and Establishment in the state ,Mr Jide Sanwo-Olu ,allegedly backed by Asiwaju Bola Tinubu is Ambode’s main challenger while a former Commissioner for Works and Infrastructure ,Dr Obafemi Hamzat is also in the race .
