As the countdown to the July 12 local government elections intensifies, the Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has launched an ambitious reconciliation and unity campaign—led by none other than former Governor Akinwunmi Ambode report by The Nation Newspaper reports. At the heart of this effort is a bold new slogan: “One APC, One Lagos.”

The initiative, which marks Ambode’s first major political assignment since he left office in 2019, signals a fresh chapter for the ruling party as it seeks to heal deep internal wounds inflicted by the controversial May 11 party primaries. The exercise, which produced 55 out of 57 chairmanship candidates, was marred by allegations of imposition, sidelining of grassroots stakeholders, and a widening generational rift—leaving many loyalists disillusioned and resentful.
