In March, the ruling party set up the contact/strategy committee made up of 61 members.
John Akpanudoehede, national secretary of the caretaker/extraordinary convention planning committee (CECPC), had said the committee was constituted as part of efforts to rebuild and reposition the party.
Gbenga Daniel, former governor of Ogun state; Dimeji Bankole, former speaker of the house of representatives; Yakubu Dogara, former speaker of the house of representatives; Sadiya Umar Farouq, minister of humanitarian affairs, and Hope Uzodimma, governor of Imo, are also members of the committee.
Ambode was denied the APC’s ticket for reelection, and became the first governor of Lagos to serve only one term in office since the return of democracy in 1999.
