Lagos APC Carpets ADC Over Claim of Citizens’ Cooperation to Take Over Lagos in 2027, Says Delusions Don’t Win Elections — Performance Does
The Lagos State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has noted, with understandable amusement, the latest political fantasy being peddled by the African Democratic Congress (ADC) – a party that cannot hold a worthwhile ward meetings now suddenly seeking “citizens’ cooperation” to take over a state globally acknowledged as Nigeria’s model for sustained governance, innovation, and leadership.
Let it be stated clearly:
Lagos is not a laboratory for political apprentices. Lagos is not up for grabs. And Lagos is certainly not a charity project for emergency parties seeking relevance through laughable headlines.
The ADC’s posturing is nothing but a comical attempt to inflate political balloon with the hot air of wishful thinking. A party without structures, without ideas, without credible candidates, and without electoral footprints cannot – and will not – take over a state built through decades of vision, continuity, competence, and unmatched performance.
ADC Should First Take Over Its Polling Units Before Talking About Lagos
In 2023 and even before then, the ADC struggled to fill a bus stop with its entire membership. The same party is now promising to overrun a state with over 20 million people, world-class infrastructure, and the most sophisticated electorate in Nigeria. Indeed, there should be limits to political comedy.
We encourage the ADC to first take internal attendance at its next party meeting.
If they achieve a quorum, perhaps then they can graduate to contesting councillorship seats before dreaming of Alausa.
Governance Is Earned Through Capacity – Not Social Media Echo Chambers
Lagosians know the difference between real governance and idle political theatrics.
They have witnessed transformative leadership from the days of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, through Babatunde Fashola, Akinwunmi Ambode, and now Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu – leaders whose vision and continuity have placed Lagos on the global map.
What exactly does the ADC offer beyond press statements and periodic fantasy-driven declarations?
No blueprint.
No record.
No structure.
No credibility.
Lagos APC Will Defend Its Mandate, Its Legacy, and Its Future
The ADC’s hallucination about “taking over Lagos” is dead on arrival.
Lagos remains the stronghold of progressive politics and will continue to consolidate on decades of unmatched results. Our party remains deeply rooted at the grassroots, fully aligned with the aspirations of Lagosians, and committed to the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The people of Lagos are not confused.
They know who works.
They know who delivers.
They know who has a plan – and who merely has press releases.
Conclusion
We advise the ADC to focus on building a party before dreaming of governing a state. Lagos APC welcomes competition, but what the ADC brings is not competition – it is political comedy. And Lagosians are far too enlightened to be entertained by such amateur performances.
Lagos is not in play. Lagos is not confused. Lagos is not an experiment. Lagos is firmly APC – in 2027 and beyond.
