Obafemi Hamzat And ‘The Lagos Promise’
By Mobolaji Sanusi “The visionary starts with a clean sheet of paper, and re-imagines the world.”—Malcolm Gladwell In my part of the world, one familiar cliché routinely finds its way
Dr. Kadri Obafemi Hamzat, the incumbent Deputy Governor of Lagos State and a candidate for the All Progressives Congress (APC) gubernatorial position, has presented a comprehensive manifesto titled "The Lagos Promise — Ìlérí Èkó." This document outlines specific deliverables that his administration intends to pursue if elected on May 29, 2027.
Hamzat's approach to the manifesto emphasizes the importance of accountability, realism, and the recognition of constitutional boundaries within which government must operate. His extensive administrative experience, spanning multiple administrations of Lagos State, provides him with unique insights into the state's governance architecture, administrative machinery, and development priorities. This extensive experience sets him apart from other candidates in the 2027 gubernatorial race.
