Eti-Osa Declaration! Thousands Vow to Deliver Lagos for Tinubu in 2027 as Hamzat Gets "Successor" Nod



ETI-OSA, LAGOS – In a massive display of political force, thousands of residents across Eti-Osa gathered over the weekend to send a clear message: 2027 will not be like 2023. The constituency has officially declared a "No Vacancy" sign at the Presidency, rooting for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s re-election while endorsing a strategic succession plan for Lagos State.

The "Hamzat 2027" Momentum

The rally wasn't just about the center; it was about the future of Alausa. The Central Working Committee of the APC in Eti-Osa, led by GAC member Murphy Adetoro, has thrown its full weight behind Deputy Governor Obafemi Hamzat as the preferred successor to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu. This move aligns with recent reports that the Governance Advisory Council (GAC) and President Tinubu have signaled their approval for Hamzat to lead the party in the 2027 gubernatorial race.

Why Eti-Osa is Flipping for Tinubu

While the 2023 elections saw a divided Lagos, residents at the rally cited massive infrastructure gains as the reason for their renewed loyalty. Specifically, the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway—which has already seen its first 47km stretch near completion in early 2026—was praised as a game-changer for the Lekki-Eti-Osa axis. Tomorrows Best learned that the project has significantly increased property values and eased traffic for the residents.

Noheem Adams: The "Consensus" Choice

Hon. Noheem Adams, the Majority Leader of the Lagos Assembly, emerged as the star of the day. The Lekki Estates Residents and Stakeholders Association (LERSA), led by Sulyman Bello, lauded Adams for his "unmatched" record, including his intervention in stopping illegal demolitions of local estates. Tomorrows Best reports that traditional rulers and ward chairmen have already signed off on Adams as the party’s consensus candidate to maintain his seat.

"What we are doing today is a rehearsal... President Tinubu’s achievements speak volumes, and we are confirming our decision that Noheem Adams remains our recognized candidate." — Murphy Adetoro (GAC Member)

Eyeing the Speaker's Seat

The ambition in Eti-Osa goes beyond just winning seats. Former lawmaker Yahaya Dosunmu expressed hope that with the current level of mobilization, the constituency is well-positioned to produce the next Speaker of the Lagos Assembly in 2027. "If we have numbers one and two outside, we are supposed to have three," he noted, referring to the executive-legislative hierarchy.

Blogger Insight: The early endorsement of Hamzat and the unified front in Eti-Osa suggest the APC is looking to lock down Lagos months before the official primary season. By aligning with residents' groups like LERSA, they are bridging the gap between "street politics" and "estate residents."

Can the APC truly sweep Eti-Osa this time around?
