One of the governorship contestants at the just conducted All Progressives Congress Primary Election in Lagos state, Mr. Tayo Akinmade Ayinde, has congratulated the eventual winner, Mr.  Akinwunmi Ambode. He also pledged his support and loyalty to the party and the National leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. He attributed the landslide victory of Ambode to his "rigorous campaign activities, hard work and popularity within the party".

Mr. Ayinde made this known in a release by the Director of Media and Publicity of his campaign organisation, Peter Ajayi.
"As one of the contestants at the just conducted All Progressives Congress Primary Election, I Tayo Akinmade Ayinde, wish to congratulate Mr Akinwunmi Ambode for his victory at the party primary election. His rigorous campaign activities, hard work and popularity within the party have been rewarded with landslide victory. As a loyalist of APC, the victory of one of us, is victory for all. I shall continue to work for the interest of our party," he said.

He thanked Bola Ahmed Tinubu for providing an enabling environment and level playing ground for all the contestants, while acknowledging delegates for making their choice during the election.
"My profound gratitude goes to our National leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu for the provision of enabling environment and level playing ground for all of us. You are a mentor and father of all. We shall continue to work with you for the interest and development of our great party and Nigeria.

More so, I commend all delegates, observers and all other participants for the painstaking exercise that lasted throughout the night. The peaceful conduct of the primary has further proved a point and showed to other political parties and the world that our party is democratic and a one big family. Our collective purpose has been, and will always be to serve the interest of our people.

To all members of APC, the work has just started. What we just witnessed was an election within the party. The hurdle ahead is to win all elective positions in February, 2015. To achieve this, all hands must be on deck. All campaign structures should be collapsed into a more formidable one.
As a party with masses oriented programmes, let us work together to give Nigerians the change that they are yearning for," he added.
