The Governorship Election Petition Tribunal in Lagos State will on Monday (today) deliver judgment in the petitions filed before it by opposition
DAILY POST recalls that the Labour Party and its governorship candidate, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, the Peoples Democratic Party and its candidate, Olajide Adediran, popularly known as Jandor had filed petitions before the court seeking to upturn Sanwo-Olu’s victory in the March 18 poll.
The Governor, who contested for his second term, won the election by a landslide, defeating Rhodes-Vivour of the Labour Party, who came second. Unsatisfied with the outcome of the election, the LP, the PDP and their candidates approached the court to nullify the election over alleged irregularities, which according to them, marred the exercise.
